HSPHERE: Managing Your Mailing List Moderators

Moderators approve of message posts and requests for subscription. Individual moderator's addresses are kept secret, even from other moderators. The total number of moderators is displayed in brackets in the mailing list Properties column.

To add a moderator to your mailing list:

   1. Click the Moderators icon in the mailing list Properties column on the mail domain controls page.
   2. Enter moderator's email in the Add moderator field:

   3. Click Submit.

To remove a moderator from your mailing list:

   1. Click the Moderators icon in the mailing list Properties column on the mail domain controls page.
   2. Click the Delete icon next to the moderator

There can be several moderators, both for messages and subscription:

 - Message moderators allow messages to be sent to the mail list. The message will be passed on to the mailing list subscribers only if a moderator approves it.
 - Subscription moderators allow people to join the list. If at least one subscription moderator approves the request, the user address becomes a subscriber.

As a rule of thumb, most lists use the same addresses for both functions.
