  Use the DEFAULT OPTION   Review
  Default-Options= Review
  Editor= [log in to unmask]

  All future subscribers will have their postings sent to address
  given in the Editor keyword, perhaps your address.  You will review
  the posting and forward it to your list if it is OK.  Once you have
  determined that a particular subscriber is OK and won't send
  inappropriate messages, you can change his or her subscription
  option to NOREVIEW
