Not quite...

In ~mailman/Mailman/mm_cfg.py, you can set:
# SUBSCRIBE POLICY
# 0 - open list (only when ALLOW_OPEN_SUBSCRIBE is set to 1) **
# 1 - confirmation required for subscribes
# 2 - admin approval required for subscribes
# 3 - both confirmation and admin approval required
#
# ** please do not choose option 0 if you are not allowing open
# subscribes (next variable)
DEFAULT_SUBSCRIBE_POLICY = 1
# does this site allow completely unchecked subscriptions?
ALLOW_OPEN_SUBSCRIBE = 1
