I was not clear when I wrote this.  I am the owner/moderator of this list. 
The spam arrives in my mailbox (and mine only) then sits waiting for 
approval.  I don't want to have to read each message before I approve or 
delete it.  That is why I ask for meaningful subject lines.  I will delete 
the ones automatically that look like spam.  If your subject line looks 
like spam, then your message may be deleted as well.  Most messages to the 
list are NOT held up for moderator approval, just the ones which were sent 
from an address NOT subscribed to the list.

Sorry for the confusion.
