[Sysadmin] [Fwd: Your message to thelist awaits moderator approval]

[Dean Mah]

For your specific case below, the reason that your post is held is
because of a suspicious header.  However, it should be noted that all
lists *except* for content are closed to non-member posting.  So if
you post from an e-mail address that you are not subscribed to a list
with, your message is automatically held.
