as said on irc, emergency moderation is the standard and expected tool
for ml admins to use to stomp out flame wars.

When this option is enabled, all list traffic is emergency moderated,
i.e. held for moderation. Turn this option on when your list is
experiencing a flamewar and you want a cooling off period.


emergency moderation is part of an ml admins job. it is not something i
thought up, invented, or wrote guidelines for. it is not something i
enjoy either.

having mails delayed ~2 minutes never hurt anyone.
