Foo is a placeholder

We are familiar with a mailinglist like   foo@lists.doman.tld

Subscribe, Unsubscribe
and other user requests go to foo-request@lists.domain.tld

For the pool of moderators there is foo-review@lists.domain.tld
where they can sent there approval (or disapproval) of postings
that need review.

Q: Which postings need review?
A: Postings of subscribers without a established reputation.


Q: How will moderators be informed about a posting needing review?
A: By email from the mailinglist software at server.


The moderator sends her/his judgement as a reply
to foo-review@lists.domain.list
ML S/W then distributes the posting to the whole ML
(or drops the posting (like spam))


Moderators volunteer themself for the task  and listmaster
configures that at ML S/W.  These are human actions by design.


Q: Will a moderator see postings  twice?
A: Mostly no. Some, yes, the postings of reputation below threshold.


Q: What about the regular ML subscribers?
A: Yes, regular citizens.
