Actually, I think Andrew was specifically look at not getting this in the 
moderator queue, which is somethign that Majordomo2 can be configured to do ... 
we'd just need to add something like:

post
reject
/$LIST/i

to access_rules ... which would reject any messages coming from the list its 
being sent to ... we'd have to do something a bit more involved if we wanted to 
reject from any list, ie something like:

post
reject
/pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org/i OR /pgsql-general@postgresql.org/i

and Andrew will never see those posts ...
