It turns out there was a bug in the new member_verbosity_threshold
feature such that if the threshold was set to 1, every post would be
held and set the members mod flag. The bug report is at
<https://bugs.launchpad.net/mailman/+bug/1693366> and the fix is at
<http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~mailman-coders/mailman/2.1/revision/1704>.
