As Adam said, go to the list's web admin interface Privacy options...
-> Sender filters and set default_member_moderation to No so future
new members won't be moderated by default.

Then go to Membership Management -> Membership List, scroll down to
Additional Member Tasks and under "Set everyone's moderation bit,
including those members not currently visible" select Off and press Set

These changes have nothing to do with subscribe_policy for which you
apparently do want require approval.

It appears though that the reason that your list's posts are held is
"Posting to a moderated newsgroup". This is because on the admin
Mail<->News gateways page, you have gateway_to_news = Yes and
news_moderation set to Moderated. Is this what you mean by "moderated"
below?

If this is the setting on the Mail<->News gateways page, those all have
to do with gatewaying to/from a usenet group via NNTP. I suspect you
are not really doing that in which case both gateway_to_news and
gateway_to_mail should be set to No.

Non-member posting is controlled by Privacy options... -> Sender
filters *_these_nonmembers and generic_nonmember_action.
