Damn, I thought that decision had gone the other way.  I hand edit every
message (the wonders of XEmacs) for my major lists, and thus currently
rely on the plain text qfiles being accessible to do that.

I thought v2.1 (don't have an installation to hand) also had a
moderate-by-email setup such that the edited message could be sent in to
be approved (and this removing the matching queue entry)?
