I believe all new members *are* moderated until one of the moderators explicitly decides they can be trusted (which usually only takes one or two good messages, I think).
First message in almost all cases.
If by "post-moderate" you mean removing bad emails without requiring all emails to be pre-approved, that's impossible, with any software, since it would involve deleting emails off mail servers around the world...
If every single message were required to be moderated, that'd be *way* too much like work. The reason wikien-l keeps needing new mods is that it's a bit much like work for not terribly much payoff and considerable flak. (I'm occasionally amazed at the powers people presume I have here, for instance.)
