The results were that you got moderation messages for all your CVS
checkins and that you were pretty annoyed.  If you want to try your
hand at some other settings, go ahead.  It would probably also be
possible to use a combination of automoderation and whitelisting, but
that also means that the amount of mail I need to check for
potentially kept messages will increase manyfold again.
