Forgot to answer the first question.... The works consists of looking at each message and deciding whether your going to allow it, reject it or discard it. Now there are some posts that have size limits so you'd explicity have to allow/deny them. The rest are generally spam, so you just discard them. I've been a bit slack with it recently, so the numbers of posts have just been sitting there. You get daily reminders of how many are in the queue waiting for your attention too. But to be managed properly you need to tend to them on a daily basis.
