Subject: Q: Approval to moderated list???

Hi!

In case this is a very stupid question, I appologize right from the beginning 
;-)

I have to set up a closed, moderated list. It is called moderated1.
I can successfully approve subscription-requests, using the list- adminstration 
password (default: moderated.admin).
But I cannot approve mails sent to the list. They always bounce back for 
further approval. *grmpf*
I know that "approve: <passwd>" is supposed to be in the _first_ line of the 
mail.
Be assured, this is the _first_ line in PINE.
I was told SMTP alway separates headers and body with a blank line....
So how the heck am I supposed to approve then?
Is there a setting in majordomo.cf to tell him to look somewhere else in order 
to fix this problem??

I am sure it is a RTFM question. I would love to read the f***'in manual, but 
for some reason the admins didnt install it.
Is there a good location of Majordomo docs in the Web?? I am sure there is..

Below, I send a copy a bounced mail, to show its behavior. If U need anything 
else to help, just let me know and I will send the Info (personally to, so I 
dont flood the list with RTFM stuff ;-)) )

thx,
