The reason majordomo is trying to add/remove the moderator from the list
is the syntax of the command is incorrect.  Since no address is stated on
the command line, the address of the sender is assumed.  The correct syntax
to use (all on one line) is:

>>>> approve PASSWD subscribe testlist ADDRESS

or if you must split lines due to weak email clients,

>>>> approve PASSWD subscribe \
>>>> testlist ADDRESS

note the trailing backslash on the first line.
