I'm a list owner at Colorado SuperNet (CSN) who is using version 1.32
of majordomo.  I want to be able to moderate the content that
gets posted to the list, but have majordomo do the subscription
administration automatically.   

I do not have control over the actual administration of majordomo,
which is done by CSN.  I've made requests for them to upgrade their
version to the latest, but it is so low on their priority list
it'll take a long time before it ever gets done.  I've had the
request in for this upgrade for over 3 months already.  Bottom
line is I have to work with 1.32.

I got a cursory response from CSN's support staff that said that
a list owner can only "moderate" subscription requests but not
the content that gets posted to the list.  This is bogus and
totally useless for my purposes and I think they must not know
what they are talking about.  On the other hand, 1.32 is quite 
an old version, is it not? and maybe that's the way it was then.

Can anyone remember what the actual moderator/list owner capabilities
where/are in 1.32?  Am I really screwed as a true moderator of
the list content which gets posted?

Unless I can moderate the postings, I'm not going to be able to
use this list.
