Unfortunately, due to the spammers (well, the virus posters, anyway)
having gotten wise to member only posting restrictions, this doesn't
quite work either.  What you would really want here is a greylist that
upgrades stuff that claims to be from list members back up to the
"looks bogus, but ask a human" catagory.

This is doable with sufficient procmail hackery, but it's more work.
