Bug Description

Consider list1 and list2 on the same Mailman server. The admin creates a
third list, list3, to act as an umbrella list for both lists. If the admin
configures list3 so that only list members can post, members of list1 or
list2 can't post to the list.

This is a FAQ'd problem with a workaround:

The problem should be fixed so that the workaround isn't needed.

I think that this issue is addressed by Jim Tittsler's patch at <http://

I'm trying now to see if this has been uploaded to the Mailman
SourceForge Patch tracker, and if not I'll try to get Jim to upload it
himself.
