If you keep an eye on the sending date of messages (and the flow) it is quite easy to tell that new users' messages are often piled up for a few days and then some kind of moderator let them the whole pile through (presumably after weeding the worst stuff out).

I suspect that once you are approved you stay approved until manually blocked. Hence, the spammers (for example some semi-random head hunters) may be let through with an innocent message and then turn evil.

Not ideal, but...

    Yes. This message is coming via Gmail, for example.

    It is possible that the email interface is only available to those who
    have gotten past the moderation queue or something.

    It is issues like this why I steer people to StackOverflow.
