I assume Nicolas wants a solution that only allows registered users
to post to the list using the web.  I have a similar need.

Exactly.  I have a simple form and a CGI written in Perl that allows
anyone to send mail as long as they know a password.  Unfortunately,
the only way for the entire list to use this is to broadcast the
password to the list (which is NOT a Good Thing(tm)).  What I would
like is a CGI that would look up the password in Mailman's user DB.
Has anyone done this?  If not, I will put on my programming hat and
learn python.
