¡Oh!  It was not moderation?

I thought that message on the web page meant that those messages were
manually removed.  Notice that I did not mean that there was no
notification to the sender.  I meant notification to the readers and a
way to read the original message.  I know this might not be included in
the mailing list software.  But it would be good to consider the needs
of the readers who do want to read all messages, in case moderators want
to suppress speech because of list policy and not because of automated
spamming.

I am very sorry for assuming that it was not a technical error.  Please
consider my apologies.
