[Pkg-mlmmj-devel] Bug#519931: mlmmj: sends welcome E-mail when 'submod' is enabled (update)

this open bug is getting a tad...old, to put it politely.

anyway, there has been *some* progress and version 1.2.18 
now fixes half of the problem: it is now possible to bypass moderation 
when using mlmmj-sub on the commandline, by giving the new option "-f".

however, the second half isn't fixed: if a subscription happens via email,
then mlmmj still sends out welcome mails and there is no mechanism to disable 
that (look for "-c" in src/listcontrol.c).

the patch that i provided in 
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=519931#22
doesn't apply to the new version, but i still think that a tunable to
disable welcomes/greetings would be the appropriate solution for this issue.

regards
az
