Krishna,
I believe I have already informed you last year that the mailing list gets cleared at least once a week, and that has been largely happening since the list was founded by hpnadig. If you personally wish to volunteer as a moderator or know someone who wishes to do so, then please state so clearly. There is no point in passive-aggressively bringing this up once every year in case one of your friends is unable to do something they want to do. If I recall correctly, even last time you were suggesting that we ought to clear emails sent by non-members to the list.
Recently a user approached me that they've been unable to subscribe to
mailing list directly, and they got a message they require admin approval.
I have no idea why that should have happened. I have not received any email from such user expressing trouble joining the mailing list. As you should know by now, joining this mailing list does not require admin approval.

Hello everyone,
I would like to revive this past discussion from July 2018 about Indian Wikimedia community mailing list admin. I know it happened quite a long back, but I felt it is worth reviving this discussion in general interest. Recently a user approached me that they've been unable to subscribe to mailing list directly, and they got a message they require admin approval. Even after a week and their repeated emails to the mailing list admins, there has been no response.
I request other Wikimedians to comment on this, and I opine that active [1] Wikimedia users should be the admins of the Indian community mailing list.
Regards Krishna
