Hi,
As you said, ranting about the initial idea is food for a separate
thread. The issue you want to resolve, sounds a lot like mailing list
software with posting approval.
I'm not sure if existing mailing list software has the option to send to
arbitrary recipients (ignoring the 'list' concept), or can be hacked
easily into doing what you need. Setting up postfix into pushing all the
e-mail from 'monitored employees' to the mailing list software seems
trivial to me.
