Approval Wizard
Approve or reject mailings quickly by using the Mailings: Approval: Approval Wizard (available from the Mailings: Approval menu page).
If you are approving (moderating) a discussion list (where members submit mailings to the list), the Approval Wizard helps you work quickly as you approve and delete mailings in the order in which they were submitted. You also have the option of deleting mailings with feedback so contributes know why their mailing was rejected.
If you are sending messages with international character sets, they cannot be approved using the Approval Wizard; they can only be approved from the Homepage. See Mailings: Need Approval: Edit Mailing: Message Body for details on this.
If you have several lists, the Approval Wizard also gives you an overview of your other lists to approve once you have completed approving messages for the list you're logged into.
Approval Summary
The Approval Summary shows you all the lists you have messages pending approval. You may click Overview to change lists and see the messages pending approval for that particular list. Or, click Approval Wizard next to the list to be taken directly to the Approval wizard for that list. The Approval Summary page may be book marked for easy reference.
