I was suggestiong changing this - I don't think it's very nice, when 
you're sending a proposal for a presentation, to get a message saying 
"this email is being held in moderation". Can we change the moderation 
email to say "Thank you for your submission, we will get back to you 
shortly"? Otherwise, I would suggest that we not moderate email posted 
to the list, while retaining moderated membership and private archives.

We would run the risk of receiving spam through the list, but in 
conjunction with the planned spam filtering which Kevin proposed to put 
in place, and which Karsten will set him up to do, that might not be a 
problem for long.

Cheers,
Dave.
