Go to the web admin interface for your list at
<http://example.com/mailman/admin/test/> or something similar, and
then click the Privacy options... link which will return the
Subscription rules page and you will see the setting.

And what are they?

Are any of these subscription requests or are they all posts waiting
approval? Whatever they are, you can approve them and then
subscriptions waiting approval if any will be approved and the users
will receive welcome messages and posts will be sent to the list.

You need to go to the web admin interface and visit every category and
subcategory page under Configuration Categories (from General Optionas
through Topics) and look at each option and if necessary the "Details
for" page so you understand what the list configuration settings are
and what they do. Then you can set up the list to work the way you
want.
