[Sheepranch] List policy change for non-members

The way I have multiple accounts set up on euro-moto is to have all my email addresses registered as accounts, and all but one set to not send me any posts. That way I don't get duplicated copies of posts, but I can send to the mailing list from any of the email addresses (three personal, one administrator). 

The user controls for the Micapeak mail server allow users to set this up themselves, but I've set up a couple of similar multi-address users.

I changed the policy so posts from non-members are automatically discarded. This means that if you post from an email that isn't subscribed or in the aloowed list, it will be automatically discarded. So, if you don't see your post, it's likely because you used an address other than what is listed. If this happens email me and I'll add the new address to the "allowed" list.
