Yes, that is correct. personalization and VERP are independent. The
conflation comes because if you are already VERPing all messages,
there is no additional sending cost for personalization, or if you are
personalizing some messages, you can VERP those at no extra cost by
setting VERP_PERSONALIZED_DELIVERIES = Yes.

You can do it with withlist. You can't do it in the 'usual' way with
config_list because config_list knows that personalize is not a
property that can be set if OWNERS_CAN_ENABLE_PERSONALIZATION is
false. You can do it with config_list by setting

mlist.personalize = 2

just not by setting

personalize = 2

However, if all you want is to enable the header/footer replacements
and not personalize the To: header of delivered messages, you want to
set personalize to 1, not 2.
