LISTSERV Tech Tip
Q:
How can I reject messages awaiting moderation directly from my email inbox?
By Jacob Haller
Senior Support Engineer, L-Soft

With a moderated email list, incoming messages are typically forwarded to the moderators with a link to approve them. If the message shouldn't be approved, then a moderator can simply delete the confirmation request. The message will then expire a week later and won't be distributed. However, if you prefer, you can add a link to the confirmation messages, allowing you to also reject messages directly from your inbox. This tech tip shows how to do this.
