[sxpkrikt] Threaded, limited-write mailing list

Create a mailing list such that only a few people may post starting a new thread. However, anyone subscribed may respond to a thread.  Combine it with a threaded mail reader whose UI mostly hides responses unless the reader deliberately chooses to see them.

Replicating the functionality of posting on your Facebook Wall.

Tangentially, I am not aware of any mailing list software (e.g., Mailman) well-integrated with authentication methods by posters, e.g., public key signatures or SMTP authentication encoded in message headers (SPF?).
