I am trying to use the option to approve moderated messages using the 'reply' feature but it doesn't seem to work for me. I add the Approved:<password> header to my reply as the first line in the body, but the message simply arrives back in my inbox unmodified, and the moderated message stays in the queue until I approve it with the web interface. Running v2.1.14

An example of an outgoing 'approval' message is below:

Your problem is you are replying to the held message notice itself so your reply is sent to xservetestlist-owner@acvr.org with Subject: Xservetestlist post from mclear@petrad.com requires approval. That reply is just sent back to the list owner.

The message to which you replied is a multipart message with 3 parts. The part below is an attached message/rfc822 part.

If you reply to this message, keeping the Subject: header intact, Mailman will discard the held message. Do this if the message is spam. If you reply to this message and include an Approved: header with the list password in it, the message will be approved for posting to the list. The Approved: header can also appear in the first line of the body of the reply.

You need to reply to the above attached message. Depending on your MUA, you may be able to open this as a separate message and reply to it. If you can't do this, you have to just compose a message

To: xservetestlist-request@acvr.org

with

Subject: confirm dda15190a0e5ffa59d0894b92f7a9efface6b70b
