Moderate a discussion forum by email

If your discussion forum is also a mailing list, you can approve or reject the post by email.

A message to a moderated discussion forum is held until a moderator acts on it. (Except if it is from a trusted user. These messages don't require moderation.)

As a moderator, you get an email when a message is awaiting moderation. The email contains the URL where you can approve or reject the message.

See the notification email for your options.

To reject the message: Send an email to <postId>-reject@<domain>.
