It appears that while the Approved: header is standard in Usenet for
posting to moderated groups, it's use for email and email lists has
never been standardized (RFC 2076, Sec 3.4). Thus, your point is well
taken. I will change Mailman to accept X-Approved:. It would help our
bookkeeping if you would file a bug report at
http://bugs.launchpad.net/mailman.
