There's a how-to in the CoreBlog site that tells how to be warned via
e-mail when a comment or trackback is added (see
http://coreblog.org/howtos/notification_howto_html). I don't know if
it works with moderation enabled, or from what version on this works.
If it works in your case, I suppose you can change it to make it send
a notice to the poster. Anyway, if your problem is comment spam, I
have changed the methods in that link so that  they check if the
comment/trackback can be considered spam, if so they delete it and the
notification sent has a notice saying that it has been deleted. If you
are interested in them, I can send them.
