Nope, that only tells me how to create an "umbrella list" but doesn't tackle the important issue of only allowing members of the sublists to post to the umbrella list.
The last part of the FAQ entry under the line reading "The work-around for this is to setup a script that builds a Mega-list out of other lists on your server" is why I pointed you at that FAQ entry. What you want to do is going to be a problem with umbrella lists whereas he synthesised superior list may give you the flexibility you want on the posting front. You may have to edit the script presented source code but it is a start.It may not be that elegant but other subscribers to mailman-users are said to swear by it. Just a thought.
