Except that there are 5.  Four are admins listed as owners of the list.
So there actually is no way for you to verify the moderators, only the
four (not 3) admins, who are automatically moderators as well.

As it happens, Koh is an admin, so the present confusion should be solved.

For the future, you can expect that the actual moderators are reading
your stuff, and will alert the whole list to any moderator-spoofing they
detect.
