The current moderation queue for KWin has three messages. Two of them 
are:

Pending posts:
 From: rlevine at jcsfl.org on Thu Dec  1 22:09:45 2016
Subject: Your password will expire soon
Cause: Message is suspected to be spam

 From: wheeler.hannah at nevergiveupshow.com on Fri Dec  2 05:39:03 2016
Subject: Payment Information
Cause: Message is suspected to be spam

I think if the cause is "Message is suspected to be spam" it can be 
dropped. We still have then quite a lot of mails coming in as spam.

If it's a legitimate mail I expect that the user will react based on the 
automated reply.

Cheers
