Hi :) There are a whole bunch of us that are new here and we are still trying to find the optimal work-flow.  Anne's seems to make sense to me but obviously people that have been here longer either 1.  don't mind duplicating each others work a lot of the time or 2.  they have some cunning way

Anne, Thoughtful, but really not necessary. It is two seconds work to send the reject response and the issue is done. The first response clears it from the moderation queue, any additional are simply ignored. No need to cross check each others work, or have the extra mail exchanges simply for
