Only allowing certain users to send to a mailing list
I have created some lists and I only want a certain short list of users to be allowed to send to these lists - and these users are not necessarily members of these lists.
What is the simplest way to do this? boolean somehow with sender filters?
Thanks in advance.

Set all users moderated and set default_member_moderation to Yes. Set member_moderation_action and member_moderation_notice appropriately.
Then you have two choices:
Set moderation off for those allowed posters who are list members and add the non members or an appropriate regexp to accept_these_nonmembers, or
leave everyone moderated and provide the allowed posters with the list moderator password and let them post with an Approved: <password> header or first line pseudo-header.

Set all users moderated
*This is a check box for each member under membership management (the 'mod' box)?*
and set default_member_moderation to Yes.
*This is a setting under privacy options, sender filters?*
Set member_moderation_action and member_moderation_notice appropriately.
*Seems to be in same place, sender filters?*

*Option 1 sounds good*

Yes, although you can set all members at once under Additional Member Tasks on the same page.
and set default_member_moderation to Yes.

Yes.

Yes.
