If you have the ability to modify the code, you can modify
Mailman/Commands/cmd_subscribe.py as follows. Almost at the end, you
will see
except Errors.MMNeedApproval:
res.results.append(_("""\
Your subscription request has been forwarded to the list administrator
at %(listowner)s for review."""))
else:
# Everything is a-ok
change this to
except Errors.MMNeedApproval:
res.respond = 0
else:
# Everything is a-ok
I.e., remove the res.results... and the next two lines and replace them
with the res.respond = 0 line. Maintain the indentation exactly as
shown and don't use tabs.
If you don't have access to make this change, then the only other
approach is to have the users send their subscribe requests directly
to the list-owner address and the owner can add them via admin mass
subscribe.
