Can anyone provide the syntax for a subscribe alias command?

So that e-mailing subscribe-listname@abc.com would subscribe someone to the 
listing, and same thing for unsubscribe-listname@abc.com?

Please reply to sgordon@sbbs.net

Thank You!

The basic format (for Sendmail) is:

alias: "|/path/to/command arg arg arg"

So you'd want to run procmail with some config file as the argument, and 
that config file would have the necessary recipe(s) to extract the list 
name from the To: header and send Majordomo the real subscription request.

Don't ask me, I'm quite the procmail novice. :)
