Dave Fisher commented on WHIMSY-233:
------------------------------------

Lately I have seen the same email to several of the dev lists I moderate. If I reject spam on one list I would love to not have to look at it when I look at the other mailing lists.

> Mail moderation sends the same email to each of the moderators, so they all have to scan all the mails. It would be a lot more efficient if each mail could be dealt with once.
> The suggestion is to implement this in Whimsy.
> The code could be derived from the Secretary workbench.
> This issue is to keep track of requirements etc.
> Functionality needs to include:
> - store mails for posts, subscriptions and reponses
> - show only unprocessed mails (and dynamically update the list)
> - Flag a mail as accepted (and/or allowed)
> - Reject a mail with a suitable message (templates would be useful here)
> - Flag a mail as spam (don't reject)
> - Accept a subscription request (check that the email address is in LDAP so can validate it)
> - authorise the moderator so they only process mails for lists they are allowed to see.
> Optionally:
> - detect mails that look like spam, e.g. they are very similar to ones already flagged
> - detect when requests no longer exist on the mail server. e.g. they were processed elsewhere, or expired
