Is the spam problem that bad on this mailing list? On most of the other mailing 
lists that I administrate, spammers don't usually figure out how to sign up as

Everyone starts moderated. I clear the mod queue each morning and
unmoderate the non-spammers. You're unmoderated now :-)

[WikiEN-l] insanely stupid thing to post

2012-09-09 Thread Kathleen McCook
When I  sent a post I get a message that it was being held for moderation;
then this gets posted.
Is there something one does to be unmoderated?
