If you remove listdir/public, ezmlm-manage will stop responding to all
administrative requests, including -subscribe, -unsubscribe, and -get.
If you want -get to keep working, you can intercept delivery of the
subscription messages.  The foo-subscribe and foo-unsubscribe
addresses are handled by the list's .qmail-default file - you can
create .qmail-[un]subscribe[-default] files to handle any messages
sent to those addresses.  bouncesaying ought to be useful.  If instead
you want to drop these messages silently, remember that the .qmail
files shouldn't be empty (that indicates that the system's default
delivery method should be used - ./Mailbox, or whatever), and the
first line can't be blank - `#' is the smallest no-op.

Hm - how do you do that?
