Not exactly. Before version 8.1, if you only specified "subscribe
classiccmp" you would get an error message, and if you said "subscribe
classiccmp joe(a)foo.com" it would subscribe you at the address you sent the
request
from, and assume your real name was joe(a)foo.com. Depending on how the list
is set up, "subscribe classiccmp" will work on version 8.1 and later,
however, I'm pretty sure there still is no way to subscribe using an
address different from the one you are sending the request from.
No it shouldn't. Listproc pulls the e-mail
address from the header of the
subscription request, but it gets the subscribers name from the body.
"Your Name" should be your *real* name (eg. "Sam Ismail",
"Scott
McLauchlan", "Bill Gates"). (Oh, and leave out the double quotes.)
Hmm, I thought listproc would take the email address from the header if
you only specify "subscribe classiccmp", but you can optionally include a
different email address (e.g., "subscribe classiccmp joe(a)foo.com")uot;), and
the list maintainer can optionally refuse to accept the fully qualified
subscribe command. In any case, from the ClassicCmp FAQ (temporarily
housed at
http://www.yowza.com/classiccmp/faq.txt):
[Snip]
SUBSCRIBE CLASSICCMP Your.Address
Subscribes you to the list.
UNSUBSCRIBE CLASSICCMP Your.Address
Removes you from the list.
