This creates an interesting quandary: subscribe to the list and
be deluged with thousands of emails or don't subscribe to the
list and accept that your test reports won't show up
immediately.
Good mailing list software gives you the option of receiving no
mail to a subscribed address (primarily for the benefit of people
who use multiple addresses and want to be able to post with
several of them). I suppose the listserv at perl.org does not
have such an option?
Nope. ezmlm is specifically designed to not allow this, apparently for
performance reasons. If you don't want the messages, unsubscribe.

Yeah, I think it sucks too.
