You don't need to do anything to set this up.
Say you have a list with an admin password of "geddy". If a
non-member (or otherwise unapproved poster) sends a message to the
list with a regular mail header of
Approved: geddy
then the message, which normally would be held or bounced, goes
through to the list without moderation. Putting that line as the
first non-whitespace line in the body of the message is equivalent.
In both cases, the header and/or body line is removed before the
message is forwarded.
"Approve: <passwd>" is a synonym. Both the list admin password and
the moderator password is accepted.
Note that there's a related feature; if the header is Urgent: with the
appropriate password, then the message is sent to all members
immediately, including digest members (who get it twice -- once
immediately and once in the digest).
