Karl,

I think you are looking for the "restrict_post" feature, where certain users
may have an additional address to post messages from, but only want those 
messages delivered to their primary subscribed address.  Am I close?

To do this, set "restrict_post = listname:listname-post" in listname.config.
Now add addresses that should be allowed to send, but not receive messages
to this file, one address per line.  The side benefit, is that this file can
be manipulated via email commands to majordomo just like the list itself can.
