3.4. List-Post
The List-Post field describes the method for posting to the list.
This is typically the address of the list, but MAY be a moderator, or
potentially some other form of submission. For the special case of a
list that does not allow posting (e.g., an announcements list), the
List-Post field may contain the special value "NO".
Examples:
List-Post: <mailto:list@host.com>
List-Post: <mailto:moderator@host.com> (Postings are Moderated)
List-Post: <mailto:moderator@host.com?subject=list%20posting>
List-Post: NO (posting not allowed on this list)
