Mail going to Held Messaging even the moderation is set to Accept Immediately
Hi Team,
I am currently running Mailman 3 with version 3.3.1 and in built
postfix version 2.10.1-6 on RHEL 7.5 in production environment from the past 2 months almost.
Recently I observed a peculiar case. There is a list say
testlist@lists.testdom.com has a member say testuser@testdom.com whose Moderation attribute is set to "Accept immediately (bypass all other rules)".
It is expected that the mail should be delivered to the recipients
without being held irrespective of the body content as per my knowledge. (Correct me if I am wrong).
But the mail went to "held messages" and is waiting for pending
approval. The same user if he sends a normal and simple test mail, it is getting delivered automatically without coming to the "held message".
And the same mail (which went to "held messages") is tried to be sent
by another member whose moderation attribute is also set to "Accept immediately" only but observed the same effect as the message going to the "held messages".
As per my understanding on Mailman 3, if the moderation attribute is
set to "Accept immediately (bypass all other rules)" then without checking any rules, it should be delivered to the recipients of the list irrespective of the message or body of the message but is there any such checking if the body content or subject or any thing else is checked even if the moderation bit is set to "Accept immediately".
Please help me to resolve this issue. Also, please let me know if I
need to share any details.

Member moderation Accept Immediately does not bypass ALL rules. It only bypasses those rules after member-moderation. See <https://gitlab.com/mailman/mailman/-/blob/master/src/mailman/chains/builtin.py#L40>.
However, I don't think that's the issue here. I think the issue is the poster is both an owner and a member. There is an issue in Postorius such that in cases like this, setting the member's moderation action actually sets that of the owner which has no effect on posting.
