I just began testing a new plugin I am working on. After testing this further I began sending emails for both staged and real users.
I have found, on 3 installations (dev, sandbox and live sites), that staged user emails are not being held for moderation.
Is this by design? I cannot find a site setting that allows me to control this. I’ve tested this on Discourse versions: [v2.0.0.beta5 +64](https://github.com/discourse/discourse/compare/a8f211bd4120913d7019f692674edd52128c4eff...tests-passed) and [v2.0.0.beta4 +239](https://github.com/discourse/discourse/compare/dcd1d422d1251f104abdecb72d151ea7c4357dfb...tests-passed).

What setting(s) have you changed to cause topics/replies to be held for moderation?

It works correctly for regular users when I set:
Approve unless tl \> 3
Approve new topics unless tl \> 3
I have also tried playing with approve post count but that doesn’t seem to do anything here.
That works for currently regisistered users just not staged users. Unless I am mistaken those seem to be the pertinent fields.

It’s possible that mail from anonymous users does not go through the same path as a regular user. Anonymous users do not have a “trust level” so this could be an edge case. Let me go test this…

I’m fairly sure this is by design

In that case (before I go do testing) I guess I need to ask “why”? If TL0 users (who you don’t trust) require approval, why should an anonymous user (who you know even less about) get through without approval?

Because they are mutually exclusive settings – when you allow anon email randos to reply, you are explicitly saying “I don’t care about approvals, just let everything through.”
The TL3 requirement would imply they had a Discourse account, how is that _even possible_ when a post is submitted via email? How does an email account achieve TL3?

It can’t. Thus the assumption (at least on my part) that the post would go through approval. An anonymous account is \

@codinghorror
I would definitely anticipate requiring staged users to pass through the same approval
process.

I don’t necessarily agree here, while you are allowing anon users to submit content, if you have enabled moderation I would imagine you would want to confirm said content.
As @jomaxro mentioned, a site setting on this would definitely be useful and in a setting where everything is pretty moderated almost required.

Feel free to submit a pull request if you wish to change the way the feature behaves.
