The FAQ was in error until recently. Despite my request that the FAQ
shipped with the Mj distribution be updated to the latest version,
1.94.3 *still* has an older, incorrect version. The latest version
distributed to this list states:

    The easiest way is to forward the original message to the list, add
    the line "Approved: _approval-password_" to the very first line of
    the body, and then the entire contents of the original message.
    (meaning there should not be a blank line before and after the
    "Approved:" line.)    ^^^

Notice the inserted "not".
