	I believe that Majordomo borrowed that idea from Listserv.  You
can also add to that a requirement that the list manager approve all
subscriptions, and with that kind of system in place, it's going to
be hard for people to get through if they aren't sufficiently
literate and intelligent (which would eliminate all junkmailers, too).
