see http://www.imsa.edu/~ckolar/mailman/mailman-administration-v2.html

or, in case you're mailing from a phone or a pda or your webbrower on
your desktop is broken or something:

under privacy options in the mailman webgui:
set "must posts be approved by and administrator" to "yes"

In the field with this in the description: "Addresses of members
accepted for posting to this list without implicit approval
requirement." put the administrator's email address

click "submit your changes" at the bottom of the page.

occasionally you'll want to go to the "Tend to pending administrative
requests" page to delete accumulated stuff.  (see the archives of this
list for ideas on deleting them automatically)

Is there a way I can set mailman up so that it only allows the
administrator to send e-mails to the mailing list?  Meaning the members
can't post to the list - only the administrator?

Thanks,
Ben
