You said:

Your mail to 'Jython-users' with the subject

    The page Jython User Guide is invalid

Is being held until the list moderator can review it for approval.

The reason it is being held:

    Post by non-member to a members-only list

Either the message will get posted to the list, or you will receive notification of the moderator's decision.  

Neither part of the promise happened in a week’s time, so I open a bug.

The moderator message is a lie - but unfortunately I can't change the message (as far as I can tell). This policy goes back more than 15 years, back when spam didn't come in at the insane level that it does these days. I have let this one through and hopefully let through all of the your future mails to jython-users. Generally you pretty much have to join to post. I'll look some more to see if there is a way to change the moderator message (or maybe switch the policy to auto-reject).

OK - I've now switched jython-users and jython-dev to automatic rejections with the following message:

You are not allowed to post to this mailing list, and your message has
been automatically rejected. Generally this happens because
non-members of this list are not permitted to post. Please join the
list if you wish to post. If you think that your messages are being
rejected in error, please file a bug at http://bugs.jython.org.
