Enterprise List moderator overview

This topic provides general information about the role of the Enterprise List moderator and provides a link to more detailed instructions, which will be useful to those occupying the role of moderator.

An Enterprise List moderator, which you can activate during the creation or modification of a list, acts as a gatekeeper for all messages sent to a list. Each message is sent to the moderator first, along with a request for approval. The message cannot be distributed to members of the list without the moderator's approval.

The moderator must respond to the request for approval before the status message expiration time occurs. This value is set on the Message Networking General Parameters page. If the moderator does not respond within this time, the message is deleted and is not sent to any recipients. The default value for the status message expiration time is seven days.

Note: The moderator role is only supported for SMTP/MIME systems. A moderator must be a valid subscriber on an SMTP remote machine, such as Modular Messaging.

Requests for approval that are sent to the moderator include the contents of the message and the following message information:

  • List number
  • Name of the list to which the message is being sent
  • Originator's name and network address

See Enterprise List moderator instructions for detailed moderator instructions, including reply options and ways of communicating directly with the Message Networking system.
