   a.. We are migrating from another list program to Mailman and adding
 members via Mass Subscription.  Is there any way to skip the Confirm step
 in this situation?

Sure. Go to the "Privacy options..." page for your list and turn off the "confirm" radio buttons while mass subscribing, then turn them back on afterwards.


   b.. Is there any way to edit the content of the following messages,
 which we'd like to make some minor changes to:
     a.. Confirm message - other than adding text to the "additional text"
         box under Mass Subscription
     b.. Welcome message, other than updating welcome_msg
     c.. Digest, other than updating digest_header and digest_footer

So far as I know, your only customization options are to change these or to change the templates, unless you want to make changes to the source code.


If you want to see the limits of what Mailman can do with customization of outgoing messages, see <http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq03.037.htp>. If you want to see the limits of what you can do to customize the look and feel of the Mailman web interface, see <http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq03.040.htp>.

   c.. Is there any way that the subject line of the confirm e-mail can be
 made "friendlier".  Seeing something like "confirm
 82b57cdc0f01bb4c4954c6346583539ebee04502" in a subject line is daunting
 to an unsuspecting recipient of a Confirm e-mail via Mass Subscription.

Not without changing the source code, no.

   d.. Is there any way for the Moderator to be able to edit the content
       of a posting prior to approval?

Not that I know of, no.
