The approval delay isn't only for people who are not subscribed. Marc
also has a number of filters in there that are intended to shunt off
administrivia (ie, people who send uns*bscribe commands to the whole
list). This is not a bad idea, but unfortunately, his filter patterns
are WAY too loose IMHO. I've had posts delayed because of references
to c*ncel, s*b-SELECT, and some other words that I could hardly even
see the connection to administrivia requests.
Hoping that this post gets through without being delayed ;-)
