This doesn't come from Mailman. It comes from the MTA.
Unless the MTA is actually checking list membership before
accepting posts, the poster sent the post to the wrong address.

1- delete all users
2- change the Membership Management/Additional Member
tasks/Set everyones moderation from No to On
</quote>

Which does absolutely nothing at this point besause there
are no members to set to 'moderated'.

3- Add all of the users
4- attempt a post from a user

to the member stating "hey Im holding this until

to approve this".

And how did steps 1 - 4 produce a moderated member?

<quote>
So the bug is that changing the users moderation flag
from off to on is NOT the same as subscribing a user
with the "Action to take when a moderated member posts
to the list" set on.

I don't see how the above statement follows from your tests,
notwithstanding the fact that it is an apples/oranges type
of statement. I.e., the moderation flag and the action are
not an either/or situation. They are two independent
settings that work in concert.
