The problem with this scenario, is that majordomo does not do anything with MIME.
If a text/plain message comes through majordomo, the approval header is read and
stripped out as part of "resend"ing the message to the zubscribers. When MIME is
introduced, this approval header must exist before the first blank line separating
the headers from the body. I think this is the same regardless of what brand name
of MTA you are using in front of majordomo. MajordomoII is still in alpa stage,
but my understanding is that it does understand MIME and can handle this for you.
iPlanet messaging has mailing list capabilities built in, but not automated. Do
your moderated lists get lots of zub/unzub requests? If not, try using iPlanet's
native tools. This is not an answer to your majordomo question, but is a possible
solution to the overall problem.

PS. Can't the moderator send approvals straight to the majordomo server like you
did?
