Perhaps the forum configuration could be adjusted to limit a newly- registered poster to one or two posts, the limitation being removed by a moderator after observing that the initial post(s) are legitimate. This would enable a new registrant's initial inquiry to be seen, and perhaps responded to, without having to wait for a moderator to approve it, while preventing the all-too-common situation in which a newly-registered spammer is able to send out a dozen spam posts before being banned.
