Actually, you could set the subscriber default to "review" to force them to
be moderated. (If the list accepts posts from non-subscribers, the default
applies to them, too.)

I think "no post" would actually block them from posting at all, rather than
allowing an opportunity for review. And while that might be effective with
this particular troublemaker, it's probably not what you want for new
participants in general.
