When a message is posted to the list, a series of
moderation steps are taken to decide whether a moderator must
first approve the message or not. This section contains the
controls for moderation of both member and non-member postings.
<p>Member postings are held for moderation if their
<b>moderation flag</b> is turned on. You can control whether
member postings are moderated by default or not.
<p>Non-member postings can be automatically
<a href="?VARHELP=privacy/sender/accept_these_nonmembers"
>accepted</a>,
<a href="?VARHELP=privacy/sender/hold_these_nonmembers">held for
moderation</a>,
<a href="?VARHELP=privacy/sender/reject_these_nonmembers"
>rejected</a> (bounced), or
<a href="?VARHELP=privacy/sender/discard_these_nonmembers"
>discarded</a>,
either individually or as a group. Any
posting from a non-member who is not explicitly accepted,
rejected, or discarded, will have their posting filtered by the
<a href="?VARHELP=privacy/sender/generic_nonmember_action">general
non-member rules</a>.
<p>In the text boxes below, add one address per line; start the
line with a ^ character to designate a <a href=
"http://docs.python.org/library/re.html"
>Python regular expression</a>. When entering backslashes, do so
as if you were using Python raw strings (i.e. you generally just
use a single backslash).
<p>Note that non-regexp matches are always done first.
