Disabling message approval for moderators sending to a MailMan mailist

Setting up MailMan so moderators do not have to approve messages sent to the list.

By default, all members added to a mailist are setup so messages sent to the list must be approved before they are sent to the list. For moderators of a list, this means any message they send must also be approved before it is sent. If you wish to change this behavior so that messages to the list are sent without requiring approval, follow these instructions:

1 – Log into the MailMan control panel, either through your Plesk control panel or directly at the URL https://lists.YOURDOMAIN.com/mailman/admin/YOURLISTNAME .

2 – Click the ‘Membership Management’ link.

3 – Click the ‘Membership List’ link.

4 – Find the moderator addresses in the list.

5 – Uncheck the checkbox in the ‘mod’ column that applies to the moderators e-mail address.

6 – Click the ‘Submit Your Changes’ button.

Moderators should now be able to post to the list without requiring that the message be approved first.
