Yes.  See 'write-only aliases' in the couriermlm man page.

I don't believe there is a way to directly poke the database. 

You could, of course, send a note ahead of time to approve the write-only 
alias request, then forge an alias-subscribe message, and have the original 
recipient approve it.

Ahh. Somehow I missed that. Thanks. Is the only way to add a
write-only alias to have the subscriber do it or is there a way for the
list administrator to do it?

Have you thought of allowing the database to be stored in LDAP or GDBM -
some kind of configuration choice?
