Clearly this works, but it is not the best way to do this as it allows
anyone to post to the list by spoofing the moderator's address. A more
secure way is to leave everyone moderated and post using an

Approved: <list password>

line followed by a blank line as the first two lines of the message.
This is briefly discussed in the "How to post to the announcement
list:" section of FAQ 3.11 and also in FAQ 3.34.
