Обсуждение: Is there any way we can change the Majordomo moderation message?

WWW,

> What do i have to do to either
> - be "a member of the restrict_post groups"

The message which a user who is not subscribed to a list gets when they
post is cryptic in the extreme.  It should say something like:

"Your message is being held for moderation because you are not
subscribed to *list*.  If you want to subscribe, go <link>.  Generally,
moderated messages are approved or rejected within a day."

I raised this with Marc years ago and he was unwilling to even talk
about changing it.  Is there a way to fix that without hacking Majordomo?

Well, we could change the template files.  Those are text, not code.
However, your text is misleading; for most lists, the rule to be allowed
to post is that you must be subscribed to *any* list, not to that
specific list.  I agree we can just add a link.
