This is not necessary. What you do, is subscribe your posting address
to the list and then change the settings to `no mail delivery'. That
way you are `subscribed' but don't actually get the mails in the
wrong mailbox.
This is a bit of faff, which is unfortunate, but I think on balance
that I'd rather have a list I had to wrestle the MLM software for
once, than one that's full of spam.
