Summary: member_posting_only does not work

Initial Comment:
Version 2.0.11 on FreeBSD 4.6

Mailman allows people who are not on the list are
allowed to post. member_posting_only is set yes but non
members are still posting.

Several reasons why this could appear so:

- mail headers are being forged, so they are passing the
membership tests
- the addresses are on the "members accepted for posting"
list (e.g. the `posters' variable)
- the postings are being held but a moderator is approving them

I can't reproduce this, so I'll need more information.
