Does that mean that it should be impossible to transfer a list from other
servers, for instance?
Or that is should be impossible for an administrator to add a name --
kicking off a confirmation cycle -- but that names can only be initially
supplied by mail or from the web, presumably be the requestor but possibly
by a forger?
If I'm allowed to add you but that addition kicks off a confirmation
cycle, what's the difference if that confirmation message is spelled
"reply to remove yourself" or "reply to add yourself"?
Would it be any different if it said "reply to add yourself" after 100
lines of list-oriented content?
