It seems this would mean moderating the list which seems like a whole lot
of work. Also we have 5 "hidden"  co-owners in a special file of
listowners. They are invisible on purpose since they never post to the
list and just do operations. If they have to let the posts go by hand,
they will not be invisible anymore.  I see this as a problem. Any way to
get around it?
