Yes that's what my limited knowledge and memory tells me about this. I 
wonder why I haven't stumbled into this before, like several years ago... 

Do I really have to do some serious hacking to make this to work as 
expected. I can't make Dan release a new version of ezmlm and to have 
everyone update their systems ;) 

Maybe a new "Subscribe to an ezmlm mailing list" button would make this work 
where there are some rewriting going on in the background ;)
