Summary: wrong moderator password shouldn't silently discard message

Initial Comment:
If you reply to the approval required message and give
an approved: line, but mistype the password, the
pending message is silently discarded.  I think that's
a scary misfeature.  I think in this case it should
reject your confirmation mail with an error saying that
the password is wrong, since obviously you're
attempting to get the message approved.  Otherwise, you
never know that the message has been discarded except
that you don't see it appear on the list, and then it
is too late to recover it.

It would also be nice for the site password to be
usable for message approval.  (Now you see how I
discovered the problem above.)
