When you as ML moderator approve a post to a mailing list, please can you also state that

This would be very helpful from the start of the first posting.
As a moderator, I am not aware of any way to do this; the moderator has no means to add a
comment to an approved posting. It is possible to tell from the message headers that a
message has been moderated, so perhaps you could add a rule/macro to your mail client to add
the originator as a cc on any reply when this header is present?
I remember that it was possible with the old OOo mailing lists. I cannot believe that this is
gone even when here a different ML service is working. ;-)
If you can tell me how to do it in Thnderbird I can give it a try.

Messages from an unsubscribed poster contain the following header:
Delivered-To: moderator for ooo-dev@incubator.apache.org
You can create a filter on this header with Thunderbird for emails. If you follow this list as
a newsgroup using, as I do, you can't create a filter. There were many complaints on the old
OOo lists about allowing unsubscribed posters. Unless they are clearly identified in the
Subject line, it is a pain in the ass to identify them. Nothing was ever done to rectify the
problem.
