If you set member_moderation_action to reject or discard, the moderator
won't see the posts. The normal way is to set Reject and set an
appropriate member_moderation_notice. These settings are on Privacy
options...->Sender filters. See
<http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq03.011.htp>
for more about setting up this kind of list.
