This works perfectly.  The uk-crypto ML uses the same, well I have to
allow a few poster which are sometimes behind an open relais but this
is not a problem with that ML because it has very good anti-spamming
procedures.

Good idea; just added.

However, setting mailman to require explicit recipients is a Good
Thing - there is no problem with this:  The ML is public anyway and a
Bcc to the list is therefore silly.  Most spam gets filtered our with
this rule.
