#287 default action for the admin interface

[Paul Wise]

this patch changes the admindb interface such that each
subscribe/held message has an extra action that can be
taken: default. You then choose at the bottom what the
default action will be (defer, reject, discard etc)

While a great idea for a patch, it doesn't work if you try to
view the posts from users.

In the latest version of the patch on lists.indymedia.org
the line where the error occurs has been replaced by the
following.

# Get what action to take by default
defaultaction = mm_cfg.DEFER
try:
defaultaction = cgidata.getvalue('defaultaction')
if defaultaction != None:
defaultaction = int(defaultaction)
except ValueError, TypeError:
defaultaction = mm_cfg.DEFER

choose defer
if defaultaction not in (mm_cfg.DEFER, mm_cfg.APPROVE,
