[Mailman-Users] Subscribe Matter

[Mike Phillips]

My biggest frustration is that I do not have access to the code. It's on a
shared server.

My thought was, if someone sends an email to subscribe, and if the email is
not correctly formatted, they do not know they are not subscribed for a
while, waiting for the server to respond.

Thanks,
Mike
