You are right, the moderated list is the way to get an
announcement-only list. At first, I thought it was a two step process
(sending the message to the list and then having the moderator to
manually approve it for redistribution), which seemed to me
cumbersome. Now, I've figured out it's enough adding the Approved
line at the top of the announcement for immediate distribution.
What I'm not sure is about the relationship between the
moderated_flag and foreign_submit options. If foreign_submit is
disabled, do I have to put the moderator address in the accept file
(seems to me so) or moderator messages with good Approved lines are
always distributed?
