Perhaps that should be configurable?  As a list administrator, I might prefer
to handle subscription requests first, but someone else may want to handle
held messages first.

Please don't make color as the only way priorities are conveyed.  A 
sizable percentage of the population, particularly males, are color 
blind, and others are blind and won't see the colors.

Discussion Statement :

Whenever a new task gets added automatically ( when someone makes a
subscription request for instance), what priority level should it be
assigned. ?

One Approach can be to keep a separate level of 'unprioritised' tasks and
assigning a specific color value to this level (uncolored may be),
separating them out from the others as the ones with 'priority level not
set'.

Other Solutions which I think can exist can be, choosing a default priority
value for the newly added ones from among low/medium/high (only), limiting
the number of colors to 3 instead of 4 for may be a more simpler
(memorable) operation.
