Mailman - Removing moderator approval for messages

By default, moderator approval is required before a message is sent. However, this can be customized to remove the approval process. 

1. Click Membership Management… and scroll down the screen.
   
   
   

2. From the membership list you can either uncheck the 'mod’ (moderation) box for an individual(s), or set everyone's moderation bit, including those members not currently visible to Off and then click the Set button. If you decide to turn off moderation for all members, don’t forget the following setting:

   1. Click Privacy Options… and then the [Sender Filters] submenu.

   2. Browse down to the first setting on the page: By default, should new list member postings be moderated? and click No. 

3. Scroll to the page bottom and click the Submit Your Changes button.
