And a couple of minutes after I send this, shows up in my mailbox:
As a reply to:

Return-path: <list-admin@???>
From: mailman-owner@???
To: user
Subject: Test subscription notification
Precedence: bulk

From: Greg Humphreys <humper@???>
To: mailman-owner@???
Subject: Away from my mail...
Precedence: bulk
X-Humper-Vacation: In full effect
I will be away from my e-mail until February 28th. I will respond to your
message, "Chromium-users subscription notification"
when I get back.

This message was generated automatically by my own vacation program,

What I can say?
