As do I. I have over 30 Mailman lists running on several different domains 
using CPanel.

You have the correct setting for this.

But that's what Moderation does.

Individuals who are not subscribed to the list will not be able to post to the 
list without approval. For anyone who is not a current subscriber you (or the 
moderator) will receive a Request for approval like the one you listed above, 
and you can take appropriate action.

Here's what you need to do.

1.  Under Privacy Options -> Sender Filters , where it says:

By default, should new list member postings be moderated? 

Change the setting back to "No", then click on the "Submit Your Changes" button 
at the bottom of the page.

2.  Go to Membership Management. If  you look at the column that says "mod", 
all of the boxes are probably checked. So, at the bottom of the page, where it 
says:

Set everyone's moderation bit, including those members not currently visible

Change that to "Off" and then click "Set"

Alternatively, you could leave Privacy Options in place, so that every new 
subscriber is automatically set to be moderated, and then you can do step 2 to 
remove the moderation later.

Hope that helps.
