`Moderated' list bypass feature doesn't work for me
I've tried to set up a list so that only certain posters can post, but all the postings seem to require administrative approval.
I have set Must posts be approved by an administrator: No Restrict posting privilege to list members? No Addresses of members accepted for posting ... <list of email addresses one per line>
When I post, the posting is held. The poster (as specified in the From: and envelope, and whose address appears in the accepted posters list) gets a notification, and when I look at the admin requests page I see:
Post held because: Only approved posters may post without moderator approval.
The headers of the message as displayed on that page seem slightly odd. They give the From: correctly, but the Return-Path and Message-Id are blank.
I'm using Mailman 1.0b8 (Debian revision 3) and Python 1.5.1 (Debian revision 7), on Debian GNU/Linux i386 2.0 with some 2.1 upgrades, notably the libc.

The fix is simple, first, make sure you are using 1.0b11, then add "USE_ENVELOPE_SENDER = 0" (without the quotes) to mm_cfg.py, this will make it use the "From:" header for the match instead of the envelope sender.
