I found a patch to mailman which was proposed in 2003, don't know if it

I got some more info from Olav Vitters of GNOME - it's possible in later
versions of Mailman - including ours - to do this without patching
mailman. You just need to add "@<listname>" to the list config parameter
"accept_these_nonmembers" for each list where you want emails to go
through from all people subscribed to "<listname>".
So, in this case, we would just need to create a post-only mailing list
that anyone could subscribe to, but no-one could post to, and then for
each relevant list, add "@post-only" to the list of non-members whose
posts are accepted (and then filtered through all of the other
moderation criteria).
Apart from the @post-only list (which I personally don't agree with, as
it would encourage all sorts of abuse), I've asked Adam to see if this
is supported and working on our current mailman installation.
I would like for now for people to be at least subscribed to one list at
least that sends mails out to people. Perhaps @meego-dev only even, but
we can see about that.
If so, I'll propose a matrix of from-to mappings allowing cross-posting
going forward.
