[MM3-users] Re: Emergency moderation and clearing out a lot of held messages

sorry that makes sense, users not senders, but what is the setting for the sender? I have emergency moderation on a list, and if someone sends to the list they get this message:

Your mail to 'maillistalpha@XXXX.com' with the subject test Is being held until the list moderator can review it for approval. The message is being held because: Emergency moderation is in effect for this list Either the message will get posted to the list, or you will receive notification of the moderator's decision.

Can I turn this off for a list?

So if a mail list is getting bombed and I have moderation on, the mailman is then trying to send messages back for each incoming email, when it should just be holding it without notifying the sender.
