David, perhaps (unless the list gets large volumes of spam? In which case it would be impractical) you could set it to email the list admins when an email is received, rather than just once a day when there are pending emails.
Or you and Fae could come to an agreement whereby Fae's could be taken of moderation?
I'll just note that I had not received Fae's email via wikimediauk-l when I checked my emails this morning, which is why I forwarded it for him, and this is precisely the sort of nonsense that puts people off contributing - we can't even just congratulate Joe on being interviewed by Radio 4 without a row about list moderation.
