FAQ
Hi.

I'm playing around and testing out mailman-2.1b1 and I would like to
set up a mailing list that has many members but only a few special
people can post to. I can't seem to find the "member_posting_only"
option mentioned in the mailman-2.0.X posts. Has this functionality
changed for 2.1?

    Yes. To do this, turn on the moderation flag for all users, and set
    the action-on-moderation to one of reject, hold, or discard.

    Then for the privileged posters, either turn off their moderation flag
    (if they're members), or add them to the accept_these_nonmembers box
    in the Privacy options.
