This is in cvs now, complete with Rude Solo Light <wink>.  For
messages held while in emergency mode, no notifications are sent to
the list owner or to the sender (I suspect both would be highly
annoying, and no, I don't want to add yet another knob to control
this).

Messages get through if they have an Approved: header with the list
owner or moderator password.  That seems to be the only unspoofable
token we can rely on.

Enjoy,
