Well... when you come up with the link then perhaps we can figure out what exactly provides the prefix [moderated] tag.

As Harold Fuchs confirmed earlier in this thread, it used to be at http://www.openoffice.org/contact.html . The version of this page from 8 February 2008 (the most recent available) at the Wayback Machine (web.archive.org) contains two relevant hyperlinks. One reads mailto:[email protected]?subject=[moderated] YOU MUST GIVE A SUMMARY HERE
and the other just
     mailto:[email protected]?subject=[moderated]

But that page has (recently?) been changed and the [moderated] tag is not there any more. (The most recent message I can find with that tag is message 195278 from "Patsy" on 11 May 2009.)

However, this would suggest to me that subject prefixes *can* be added by the list administrator:

Oh, I'm quite sure they can. I never doubted it. Indeed, one already is: the current added tag is "[users]". But what is not clear (to me, at least) is whether the tag can be conditional - depending on the author's subscription status. Perhaps the hyperlinks above were created the way they were precisely because it wasn't possible for the list processor to do it.

A quick web search shows me that the
     ezmlm-make -f
command creates a new mailing list with a subject prefix consisting of the list name. Alternatively, the text of the prefix can be placed in DIR/prefix. But I see no mention of how this could be made conditional.

Some part of the list processing is adding the delivered-to-moderator header as a result of doing the conditional processing required to see if the "From" (or "Original Sender," apparently) is subscribed. Shouldn't it be able to modify the subject, too?
