Is this the message content, or the subject?

Note: If you're not aware, that value after the "list" part is a specific 
hash 
that must match the message you want to moderate.

Do you get a reply telling you that the message will be forwarded, or that it 
had an error? Or perhaps a bounce error telling you the message could not be 
delivered?

It's not a bounce, so you're in the wrong section. You need to look under 
Moderate. Note that you must log in as one of the moderators (not owner or 
list admin, unless it's the same email address) to get to the Moderate 
section.

Also make sure that /etc/aliases (can be elsewhere, as long as your mail 
server picks it up, and there is only ONE entry) has an entry for "sympa" - 
If this has gone missing, then you won't be able to communicate with sympa 
via the mail interface. Details on what it should be can be found in the 
documentation in the install section.

Hope these ideas help you find the problem.
