Something like this?
Create a file called subscribe containing, with lists set to taste:
#!/bin/bash
lists='user cd security-announce' # (for example)
for x in $lists
do
echo | (set -x; mail -s ${0##*/} [EMAIL PROTECTED])
done
Then do
chmod +x subscribe
ln -s subscribe unsubscribe
To unsubscribe do
./unsubscribe
To re-subscribe do
./subscribe
NB mail is in the mailx package. Substitute mutt for mail if you prefer.
