Why two? If one is a confirmation, it isn't necessary. We have
four lists going on Majordomo, and don't send out a confirmation.
Only one have we had folks subscribe others erroneously, and
it's not worth the hassle to eliminate that procedure. IMHO, a
confirmation sent out asking if I really subscribed is merely a CYA tactic.
