Jim, this is  cool to know, thanks. So is there  a corresponding option 
for unsubscribe confirmations?  I tried it with

m.unsubscribe_policy = 0

and withlist didn't complain, but unsub confirmations are still sent out 
:( . I also tried setting ALLOW_OPEN_UNSUBSCRIBE in mm_cfg.py, but no  
luck. I find it strange that Mailman is so insistent on confirmations 
(CommuniGate  has a simple checkbox for confirmations on or  off), but 
if  I can find a workaround, my user will be very pleased.

We're not using VERP, but thanks for  that.
