I realize this would take some work but I think it might be doable
using code from MM. Here is my idea, please let me know what you
think,

Create:
1) pop email account to recieve mulit-sub confirmations and bounces.
2) python script to generate and send the confirmation email
3) python script to check the multi-sub email account and process the
confirmations.

The python scirpts would import as much relevant code from MM. I'm not
familiar with the confirmation process but I'm guessing when a
confirmation is sent it is recored someplace?
