That's right, this feature is wanted by many users and it is easy to 
understand why it is usefull. Currently it is not part of Sympa. We will 
do it, please describe your needs in sympa bug tracker system as 
"feature" category.*

Meanwhile, may be you can do some cron job to emulate it based on the 0 
priority feature. When a list is under priority 0, messages are not 
distributed to that list. A script lunched by cron could change the list 
priority.
