Launchpad does use a form of message moderation for non-member mailing  
list posts.  Off the top of my head, I could imagine that a contact- 
user message sent to a team from a non-member could go through the  
same moderation ui.  It's disposition (should it be approved) would be  
different, but it's worth considering.
