[mlmmj] New tunable for newsletter style list

Hi,

It would be good to have a tunable like "modonlypost" that allows only 
moderators to post to the list, the same way that "subonlypost" allows 
posting only to subscribers.

The list could then be used as a newsletter list, rejecting all posts 
except from moderators, and sending to all subscribers.

Thanks for this really usefull and easy to install application !

Marc

Hi, Marc,

This has been requested before, and I have a draft implementation of it.
I need to review it and test it.

Would you be in a position to help test it when it is ready in the next
few weeks?

Ben.

In the meantime you can just make the list moderated, and only add yourself as a moderator.

Hi Mads,

this is exactly what I have done, but I must moderate a lot of spams 
sent to the list adress by non subscribers.
Whith this tunable, all these unwanted messages would just be ignored 
without moderation.

Hi,

it's quite a while since I used such a setup, but shouldn't that
be solved by denying all posts and only set your email address to
moderate via access control?

Chris

That sounds right, Marc.

There are a few closely-related use cases.

The aim of the suggested modonlypost feature is to avoid needing to change both 
the 'moderators' and the 'access' tunables when adding/removing list 'admins' (who 
are able to post and who also act as moderators).
