I just received this in response to my message earlier... Doesn't this
have a function where a domain can be whitelisted?  While I found the
"one-click" not to be that bothersome, I did have to open this and read
it to figure out what it was and that it was legit and not a piece of
spammish trickery.

I think if it became widely used I'd unsub from mailing lists because I
don't know who's subbed in and who isn't and I don't want to spend X
amount of time every day every time I send a message confirming my
address.

(and no, I'm not annoyed at the person who set this up.  I'm wanting to
make an observation that this particular white list has a very visible
flaw to it).
