If you really want to go this way, it is possible: send a subscribe message
for that address, and you'll get a verification message. Then send, from
anywhere, email with the appropriate verification number (or whatever) and
"From:" line (easy to fake - e.g., just use Netscape and change the "your
email" preference).
This should work, assuming that the @msg.pelephone.co.il address really sends
the entire message (and not just headers) to you. I'll be surprised if it
actually sends the entire message, since a typical message can be dozens of
SMS-length long.... But if it doesn't send you the entire message, what will
you gain by forwarding the mailing list to that address?? I hope you're not
planning on SMS-bombing someone else with annoying Linux-related messages ;)

This is obviously the best solution, as they can add your address easily.
Remember, though, that you'll have the same problem when you choose to
unsubscribe from the list.
