In short, the way to address this is to disable the -subscribe, -join,
-request, -unsubscribe, -leave and perhaps other email addresses (remove
teir aliases so they are undeliverable), and require the users to
subscribe/unsubscribe/confirm/etc. via the web.

This will be very crippling for my users who primarily use to the
email to subscribe or unsubscribe.


Actually, any mail sent to the -subscribe or the -join address is a valid subscribe request and as long as subscribe_policy includes 'confirm' will result in a subscription confirmation to the (forged) From: address.

Only mail to the -request or -confirm addresses produces 'unrecognized command' or 'invalid confirmation' responses.


Is there a way to  disable bounceback responses on "unrecognized command"

This will be addressed in Mailman 2.2, but currently, only by modifying code in Mailman/Queue/CommandRunner.py and/or the various Mailman/Commands/cmd_*.py modules.
