It seems that you've already asked for this question last Sunday, and
because your question is somewhat deterministic, the answers are more likely
to be the same. Check your previous e-mails.

The usual mechanism is
* newbie sends question
* newbie gets response indicating that message is being held for
moderator approval because he's not subscribed
* newbie subscribes and reposts question, which people answer
* eventually, list moderator cleans out the queue and approves the
original question
It's not really a duplicate, but it looks like one.
This could be fixed if someone wanted to improve the moderation software
to auto-approve pending messages from someone who's just subscribed, but
perhaps that's a lot of work. I haven't looked at that code, so I'm not
volunteering ...

Thats not a problem. I was surprised to see your name in a man pages for other command line
utilities un-related to postgresql. So I would expect that you have enough to do in the mean time
besides altering the moderation software. :-)

More likely, this happened:
1. person sent mail to list, got bounced because not subscribed.
2. person subscribed
3. person sent mail
4. anti-dup filter didn't catch the dup mail
5. second mail goes through
6. moderator approves original mail
7. mail shows up again.
