Postmaster practice on the baylisa.org machine is of course in part
directed at intercepting likely spam -- and you'll notice that it's been
very effective, reflecting a lot of painstaking work on the host's
software configuration.

Please note that by "HTML mail" I didn't mean mail merely incorporating
URLs of, e.g., signup pages for SBA lectures.  I'd be very surprised if
those caused posts to be held for admin approval.  Let's check:
