[Mailman-Users] Read-Only Mailing Lists

[AerosmithFanClub.com List Admin]

LOTS OF LUCK!   I asked how to do this and only got rude answers that said 
I am trying to force the software to do things it was not intended to 
do.  If you figure it out let me know.  BTW the actual restricting of posts 
to just you is the easy part.  The numerous referneces to web pages, 
posting instructions, etc that do not apply to a news list will be a PITA.
