That's an idea, but I used strictly the email address, not any additional characters. In addition I got a subscription confirmation for all 282 subscribers. Most of them got their welcome messages as far as I know, but a few here or there, never received anything, even though their emails are working fine. I wonder if Mailman hiccuped :)
