How about this simple policy scheme:
1) posts from known list members forwarded to list automatically 2) posts with "approval cookie" also forwarded automatically 3) otherwise, forwarded only after approval by moderator,
So does this mean that any personal attacks or useless and annoying drivel from the likes of Timmy May, Ray Arachelian and Sandy Sandford would be automatically forwarded to the mailing list even though they are frequently more annoying than the spam posted by the people who would be censored by Gilmore ?
No, just the opposite. My scheme allows people to route around moderation by authenticating their posts. The goal here is to keep *random* stuff, such as spam, off the list.
