[Mailman-Users] How to configure a "moderated list"

Hi All,

How should I configure my Mailman list so that it's a moderated list?

I don't see a setting for this. I see two ways to approximate it but both have 
problems.

1. I can set every user to moderated. The problem with this is that every time 
someone new subscribes I have to set them as moderated. I'm looking for a global 
setting.

2. I can turn on emergency moderation. The problem with this is that when a 
member who isn't set to moderated posts a message I don't get an email informing 
me of the fact. It just sits there on the server until I check for posts.

Is there some way that I can specify that all messages should be moderated, and 
get a notification email every time any member posts? Without having to 
individually set each new subscriber to moderated?

Thanks,

Douglas
