 One of the features of majordomo was that you could separate the

Yup, mailman can do the same.


 The next obvious thing to do is to also add the staff to the faculty
 list, but mark them as "disabled" -- still subscribed, but they won't
 receive e-mail.

You can do that. Or, you can add the staff members to the "white list" for the faculty mailing list, and all the specified e-mail addresses will be able to post, in addition to the subscribers.


Of course, nothing will stop someone else from forging an e-mail address and posting as someone who is subscribed.
