It's technically possible that the list of members' registered email 
addresses is used to check posting rights to the list, rather than the 
subscriber address.

To me, this would make sense; then, any member could post to the list, but 
could read from the list by mail, archive browsing or any other method he 
prefers.
But it's far from certain that the current crop of list subscribers is what 
would become members come April.
