That's trivial to solve. Do the same thing they've done for the NANOG
mailing list -- create a separate "linux-kernel-posters" mailing list to
which you have to subscribe addresses that you want to post from but don't
want to receive mail at. You can post to linux-kernel if you're on either
linux-kernel or linux-kernel-posters.
