hard to use a moderated group if nobody's approving posts ;)
 
 
I'm still of the belief that lost-moderator groups have moderation
flag unset.

Am am not an English native speaker, I might misunderstood your
sentence.

Moderated groups will cause the NNTP (actually NNRP) server to send
submissions to the moderation relays that will alias that to the actual
mod address. If the moderation flag is being removed, the submissions
will be directly posted to the group. This would mean a group is then
unmoderated. Such a change needs a control message sent out by the
hierarchy administrator.
