List Flag: sub-approve Indicates to listmanager that all new subscription requests require approval before the subscriber is allowed to participate in the list's discussions. If set, a subscriber is added to the list with the "pending" member flag enabled. This flag may not be set or cleared by the "mflags" command. Upon receiving an attempt to subscribe, listmanager notifies the list owner(s) that a subscription attempt was received, and adds the pending user. The list owner(s) then use either "approve" or "reject" to approve or reject the request. See also: approve reject
