I've just moved over from Majordomo, where if I wanted to forward a message from a non-member of a closed (subscriber-only posting) list to that list, even if the list was NOT set up as moderated, I could use the "approved:" formulation to do so.

Is there any way to do this in Smartlist?

I've been through the FAQs & list archive and can't find a simple straight answer.

More details:

So I have a list that's closed - accept is linked to dist, and there's an accept2 for a few alternate addresses of list members, and all is well and good. It's a forum for club-member discussion, and pretty much all of what comes from other sources, if not spam, is more properly routed by the list maintainer (using a simple redirect) to a specific club director.

However, every once and a while, someone asks a question (usually "where should I take scuba lessons?") that I would like to forward on to the list, but keeping the original sender as "from" (i.e. use redirect to send it to the list again).

I guess I could add the sender to accept2, redirect the message back to the list, then restore accept2. But that's a real pain.

What I want to do is add the "Approved: [password]" line like I did in Majordomo. But Smartlist (unlike Majordomo) only seems to have provision for this when the list is set up as moderated.

Am I missing something?
