I've seen two methods for message approval in my digging through documentation.  The first is adding approve:password to the top of the message and the second would be running the message through the approve script.

My problem is that the list moderator isn't terribly computer literate.  

The first option involves cleaning up the message from the BOUNCE and even then, once its on the list, the FROM: line shows the moderator and not the sender.  I don't want to have to show the moderator how to do all that, and they probably don't want to have to go through all of that.

The second options works well, but would require me to show the moderator how to use a UNIX mail client.  He doesn't want to get mail that way, and I don't want him playing on the Linux box anyway.

What can I do to simplify the process for the moderator?  I'd like it to be as easy as him simply forwarding on the message if he likes it.

Any ideas?  Or am I just going to have to write my own perl script for this?
