The way moderation works in Mailman is a little different. When a message
is sent to the list requiring approval, the message is held in a queue,
and, the moderator(s) is(are) notified. The moderator can then accept,
reject (with a notification to the sender), or reject as spam (without
notification to the sender) the message.
