news to mail msgs require approval
Hello List.
I have some lists importing newsgroups from local news server. It works ok except that I need to approve each single msg coming from usenet to the list. The list is configured for members only.
I tried the fix in the msg below but that produced some errors and mailman stopped updating.

Any other way to slove this..
Mailman version is 2.0.13
Thanks in advance.

I can't speak for how to do this with version 2.0.13. I do know
that more recent releases of 2.1.x have fixed this problem (2.1.3 and later), because we were doing just fine without any source code changes -- articles submitted via e-mail need to be approved or the sender needs to be on the approved list, while articles coming in via USENET were posted through without needing approval.
