- For lists with member_posting_only enabled and subscribe_policy set to require confirmation, subscribe the address that the user responds to the confirmation notice with instead of what they type in on the web page.

Correct. In fact, none of the suggestions I made are absolutelynecessary. However, I am finding it increasingly difficult to help each and every user properly configure whatever plethora of mail clients they use. It would be a great deal simpler for me if the MailMan could help by second-guessing what the user meant occasionally, especailly in the case of common mistakes. (ex, subscribing with one address but posting from another). Surely someone else has run into this issue before...
