First, in the message above, the address to which TMDA would send the confirmation request would be '[EMAIL PROTECTED]', not '[EMAIL PROTECTED]'. This is because TMDA sends the request to the envelope sender, not the address(es) in the From field. Second, most reasonable mailing list software includes one or more header fields in the mail identifying it as originating from a mailing list. If TMDA sees any of those fields, it will refuse to send a confirmation request. So it's unlikely you'll send confirmation requests to the list or the list's owner at all.
