English templates for the redesigned admindb pages.

admindbdetails.html gives detailed instructions on how to use the
administrative database pages (stripped out of admindbpreamble.html).

admindbsummary.html is the preamble for the summary page (which is now
what you see when you hit .../mailman/admindb).

+The administrative requests are displayed in one of two ways, on a <a
+href="%(summaryurl)s">summary page</a>, and on a <em>details</em>
+page.  The summary page contains pending subscription and
+unsubscription requests, as well as postings being held for your
+approval, grouped by sender email address.  The details page contains
+a more detailed view of each held message, including the all the
+message's headers and an excerpt of the message body.
+
+<p>On all the pages, the following actions are available:
+
+<ul>
+<li><b>Defer</b> -- Defer your decision until later.  No action is
+    taken now for this pending administrative request, but for held
+    postings, you can still forward or preserve the message (see
+    below).
+
+<p><li><b>Approve</b> -- Approve the message, sending it on to the list.
+    For membership requests, approve the change in membership status.
+
+<p><li><b>Reject</b> -- Reject the message, sending a rejection notice to
+    the sender, and discarding the original message.  For membership
+    requests, reject the change in membership status.  In either case,
+    you should add a reason for the rejection in the accompanying text
+    box.
+
+<p><li><b>Discard</b> -- Throw away the original message, without sending
+    a rejection notice.  For membership requests, this simply discards
+    the request without notice to the person making the request.  This
+    is usually the action you want to take for known spam.
+</ul>
+
+<p>For held messages, turn on the <b>Preserve</b> option if you want
+to save a copy of the message for the site administrator.  This is
+useful for abusive messages that you want to discard, but need to keep
+a record of for later inspection.
+
+<p>Turn on the <b>Forward to</b> option, and fill in the forwarding
+address if you want to forward the message to someone else not on the
+list.  To edit a held message before it is sent on to the list, you
+should forward the message to yourself (or the list owners), and
+discard the original message.  Then, when the message shows up in your
+mailbox, make your edits and resend the message to the list, including
+an <tt>Approved:</tt> header with the list password as its value.  It
+is proper netiquette in this case to include a note in the resent
+message, explaining that you have modified the text.
+
+<p>On the summary page, you can additionally add the email address to
+a <em>sender filter</em>.  Sender filters are described on the <a
+href="%(filterurl)s">sender filter privacy page</a>, and may be one of
+<b>auto-accept</b> (Accepts), <b>auto-hold</b> (Holds),
+<b>auto-reject</b> (Rejects), or <b>auto-discard</b> (Discards). This
+option will not be available if the address is already on one of the
+sender filters.
+
+<p>When you're finished, click on the <em>Submit All Data</em> button
+at the top or bottom of the page.  This button will submit all
+selected actions for all administrative requests that you've made a
+decision for.
