Hi Folks, Running a shiny new instance of mailman3, as per the Debian package (version 3.2.2) but the moderation doesn't seem to work. WE got hit by a heap of spammers overnight, even though the 'hold for moderation' bit is set for non-members (and now for members too).

Nope ...
Emails seem just to get straight through.

Haven't seen any emails since setting that bit, so can't tell yet.
The only think I noticed after trawling through all the configs is there was no moderator address set up. In Mailman 2.1 that meant the list owner would be asked to moderate. I've added a couple of addresses to see what happens next
For other lists on the same mailman instance I *am* seeing moderation requests for non-member postings --- but they had explicit moderator addresses configured.
