[Mailman-Users] using email to subscribe and unsubscribe users

[Adam Parker, OD]

one more question: can I add something to the subscribe email that will
auto-approve members so I don't have to do it?  I want some sort of security
on the list, but if I'm sending the subscribe, then I don't want to have to
go into the backend and approve them as well
