Hello,
We have a client with a moderated (one-way) list where subscription requires approval of the owner. When the owner uses the web interface to approve this subscription request the original subscription email is also sent to the whole list (so, you get a blank email from the new subscriber with the signature etc in it). How can we use the web interface to accept the email without having the original message also approved for posting to the list? We are using Mailman v2.1.10.

Hello again,
I jumped the gun when communicating with my client. The client is not highly skilled in IT and appears to have mixed up a normal post attempt with a subscription request. Looking through the logs and testing the behavior with a test list confirms that approving subscription requests does not in actuality appear to forward to the list. I am sorry for any confusion.
