I am trying to get majordomo to refuse postings from all addresses other 
than that of the list moderator.  I believe this could be achieved easily 
using the restrict_post option in the listname.config file associated 
with each list.  However when I modify the config file in this way and 
create another file containing the moderators address, nothing changes 
and all users are still able to post to the list.

I have looked through the source to see why this is and have found the 
grab_restricted_post subroutine which appears to get the list of 
addresses which may post.  However I cannot find anywhere in the source 
where grab_restricted_post is called.  Is this feature not implemented (I 
am running v1.93) or am I being stupid and missing something ?

	Thanks,

	Richard
