Default.py suggests to use VERP_CONFIRMATIONS:
# For nicer confirmation emails, use a VERP-like format which encodes the
# confirmation cookie in the reply address. This lets us put a more user
# friendly Subject: on the message, but requires cooperation from the MTA.
# Format is like VERP_FORMAT above, but with the following substitutions:
But doing an "find Mailman -type f -print0 | xargs -0 fgrep
VERP_CONFIRMATIONS" shows that this feature only seems to be
implemented for invitations. Am I right with this or did I oversee
something? Is using this feature for subscription confirmation planned
for a soon coming release? Checked the CVS, but MailList.py just has a
3 line patch.
