%TOC%

The following represents the web page you may sometimes see at
   * https://%MMHOST%%MMMM%admindb/%MMLIST%

It contains some sample moderator requests which should be dealt with.  (The posts are not real, however, so will not actually exist if you queried the real moderation page).

This shows what happens if you change some or all of the "[[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_button][radio buttons]]" from the default =Defer=, looking somewhat like the following.

          <table BORDER="0">

The can be changed like that, and then the button which looks like the following
<form action="https://cs.uwaterloo.ca/twiki/view/CF/MailManManagementGuideModerationRejectPage2" method="GET" >
<!-- This excerpt, and possibly others on this same page, were derived from GNU Mailman, and are distributed under the same terms -->

<input type="hidden" name="mmmm" value="%MMMM%" />
<input type="hidden" name="mmhost" value="%MMHOST%" />

<table border=0 width=70%>
<tr>
<td width=50%><center><INPUT name="submit" type="SUBMIT" value="Submit All Data" ></center></td>
<td width=50%>&nbsp;</td>
</form>
</tr>
</table>
can be selected, to cause all the requests to be processed and rejected.

Rejection should be done carefully, because it will send an email message to the indicated address.  If in doubt, [[https://cs.uwaterloo.ca/twiki/view/CF/MailManManagementGuideModerationDiscard?mmlist=%MMLIST%&mmhost=%MMHOST%&mmmm=%MMMM%][=Discard=]] the messages instead.

Go to [[https://cs.uwaterloo.ca/twiki/view/CF/MailManManagementGuideModerationRejectPage2][Reject, Page 2]] to see what the modified page should look like before submission.
