[Mailman-Users] Administrivia

I have Administrivia turned on for a list, but people keep sending  
subscribe requests to the list address (because they are morons, I  
guess, I send them the subscribe address). Anyway, the administrivia  
setting does not pick up these messages and I end up with them in the  
admin queue and end up manually adding them to the subscribers list  
and purging the message.

Can I get administrivia to process subscribe request?

message will come in with the single word subject of "subscribe"  
sometimes with a single word body of "subscribe" or sometimes no body.

The help says" Administrivia tests will check postings to see whether  
it's really meant as an administrative request (like subscribe,  
unsubscribe, etc), and will add it to the the administrative requests  
queue, notifying the administrator of the new request, in the process.

but at least on my system, this doesn't seem to happen.
