Move to this admin page and store it as a favorite.  When you click on it, 
you will be asked to authenticate as normal, but then it will open to the 
Membership Management.

If you want to modify the source code (quite easy to do actually) you can 
make it the default, but why bother when it is simply a link.

Well stop doing that, and instead edit the file ~mailman/Mailman/mm_cfg.py  
(for details on what values to put in there, look at the Defaults.py file).  

The amount of lines copied over to the moderating database is determined by a 
line in that file, if you set the value to "-1" it will include the whole 
message for moderation.

Hope this helps,

This email message is highly super penultimately secret, if you recieve it 
you must print it out immediately then run really fast to the printer, cover 
it with your body - so that no one else can see the message - then promply 
swallow every page of output on the printer... 
Then you must dial 1-900-forgive and confess all your sins; please hold for 
the next available priest (or press 2 for a rabbi, 3 for a monk, and 4 for 
someone who sounds vaguely like your mother).
