Since the posts are CCed to more than one list, maybe it's being
approved on (say) pgsql-general and this makes the system approve the
pgsql-announce one as well.

The other theory is that you guys are all confused and you're seeing the
copy in pgsql-general thinking that it's broadcast to -announce when
it's not.  My web access ATM is totally broken so I cannot figure
whether this is true.
