 * Hi,
    What can I do so that users can leave comments without me having to moderating
   them? (I can always delete them once they’re posted) I unchecked “An administrator
   must approve the comment (regardless of any matches below)” in the disussion 
   options, so are comments still held for moderation?

 * No. Your readers’s comments will show up right after they’ve clicked “post.”

 * ? yes, that’s what I want. But it will show up only to them with a message saying
   it’s awaiting moderation. Other users wont see it.

 * Oh, I forgot one other thing: Deselect the “Comment author must have a previously
   approved comment.” This will allow new and existing posters to see their comments
   right away. Hope this helps. 🙂
