Re: [whine] Slow moderation on postgres lists

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

I login to the web interface, as 'ALL' (so all lists are presented), then
middle click on the posting itself so that it opens it in a new tab, and
quickly go through an approve all the ones that need to be approved, skipping
then ones that don't ... then i Use the 'select all' checkbox and
'reject-quiet' all the rest (minus the subscribe/unsubscribe requests, which
just sit in the queue to expire or be accepted by the subscriber) ...

I don't do anything via email ... much too slow / painful ...
