Moderated newsgroups work just fine.  The only problem is getting them
created, and I posted a work-around solution for that in article
<8333@kuhub.cc.ukans.edu>.  The "m" indicates that the person is the moderator
for the group.  Since you are probably not the moderator for a netwide group,
you won't see the "m" on these groups.
