The usual mechanism is
* newbie sends question
* newbie gets response indicating that message is being held for moderator approval because he's not subscribed
* newbie subscribes and reposts question, which people answer
* eventually, list moderator cleans out the queue and approves the original question
It's not really a duplicate, but it looks like one.
This could be fixed if someone wanted to improve the moderation software
to auto-approve pending messages from someone who's just subscribed, but
perhaps that's a lot of work. I haven't looked at that code, so I'm not
volunteering ...

So I would expect that you have enough to do in the mean time besides altering the moderation software. :-) Regards, Richard Broersma Jr.

More likely, this happened: 1. person sent mail to list, got bounced because not subscribed. 2. person subscribed 3. person sent mail 4. anti-dup filter didn't catch the dup mail 5. second mail goes through 6. moderator approves original mail 7. mail shows up again.
