This probably got caught in the filters...here we go again..

Somebody created a patch for 1.94.4 that allows me to create an address
(in the aliases) like testlist-zubscribe and it would zubscribe the
person, without anything in the message body. A similar command of
testlist-unzubscribe worked.

With the new sendmail, a similar thing might be able to be done with
testlist+zubscribe, as sendmail will just pass anything after the plus as
a variable. I'm not talking about anything bigger than one word commands,
because then it gets too complicated.

Any plans for a similar thing to be available? I just haven't played
around with mj_shell enough to see if I could do such a thing.

Thanks,
