I haven't tried this, but I think perhaps if you specify "Send= [log in to unmask]" (for example) it may achieve part of the affect you desire - in that only the named address would be permitted to post to the list, but I am not certain of this.  I doubt that posts from other sources would be discarded, but rather rejected with a "you are not authorized" notice, don't know offhand if that can be prevented in the mailtpl or not.

And perhaps you could edit the list mailtpl file to prevent the "your message has been forwarded to the editor" notice being sent.  But then, the list would be of limited (if any) use because nobody nowhere nohow could get a message distributed (directly, at least).

Nah, I want to to bounce actually while I have a list temporarily
closed.

Say, does anybody know of a way to check all the list headers for all
the lists at a site, in one or two or three or a command line easy
steps?
