There are two kinds of moderation: one where the moderator has the chance to edit the original and RESEND; the other a simple OK to a cookie confirmation w/o the ability to modify the original. SEND=EDITOR allows non-subscribers (and viruses) to cause the moderator to have deal with things that most rather not. SEND=PRIVATE is more suitable but then more options must be set to further permit/restrict. YMMV.
