There are several reasons you may get moderator requests from your PantherList. One of the most often reasons is because a message is sent to your ‘Subscriber Only’ list from someone who isn’t a member. Another is because the message is identified as possible spam. Here are some other common reasons for messages being held in the moderator queue: • Message body is too big By default, PantherList will compare the size of the incoming message to the size allowed for each list. By default, any message over 10 Mb is held for moderation. This is configurable in the ‘Advanced list options’. • Post to moderated list This is the reason that will be given if a moderated member sends a message to the list, or if you’ve configured your entire PantherList to be moderated, or someone tries to post to an ‘Announcement’ type PantherList.
