Obviously, I don't know all the details of how your newsletter is set 
up, but it sounds to me like something you would want LISTSERV 
Maestro for, rather than to try to use band-aids and chewing-gum to 
rig up LISTSERV for what is essentially a social-engineering problem.

LISTSERV Maestro's mailing interface is especially designed for 
newsletter situations where you have several people working on the 
same mailing. It REQUIRES that every mailing go through a testing 
process (i.e. a test mailing must be sent out before anyone can 
approve it). You can set it up so that certain accounts can do 
everything involved in putting together the mailing, up through 
testing it (by sending it to a list of test addresses, which in your 
case would be your moderators), And you can set it up so that another 
set of accounts (e.g. your moderators) has "approval" permission. But 
even if your moderators have the right to set up a mailing, they 
still MUST test it before mailing it out.

It sounds to me like that may be exactly what you're looking for. No?
