A while ago, someone requested a feature to allow people to simultaneously subscribe to a list (particularly to the nomail version) and moderate a post. The idea is that when non-subscriber posts to a subonlypost list, they receive a rejection notice. If they're not a spammer, they may then like to subscribe. It would be convenient if they could simply reply to the rejection notice to be subscribed, and moderate the original post that was denied. I'm thinking of implementing this with no new tunables. The feature would always be avaiable when appropriate: when a post is rejected specifically because of subonlypost (rather than because of an access rule or other reason), the list is not closed, and modnonsubposts is not in use. Instead of deleting the rejected post, it would be held for moderation. No moderation email would be sent, though, only the rejection email to the poster. The list text, when appropriate (using the new conditional sections feature), would include notification that the poster could subscribe and moderate in a single step by replying, or sending to another magic address. Does anyone have any comments or objections? Ben.
