Subscribe with a e-mail and set passwort

Hi,
I have a php-script that subscribe people to a mailing-list. With, php, i create a e-mail with the subject:
"subscribe anypasswort nodigest adress=anyadress@anywhere.any"
Then I get my confirm-E-Mail and I subscribe with the mailman-web-interface. That works fine, but when i get my welcome-message, i have a randomized password - not the password i sent with the subscribe-e-mail.
Any ideas?
Cheers,
Thomas

I don't believe you want quotes around the subject, and it should be address= not adress=
The specified password feature works okay for me (confirming by either the web interface or by email reply).
Did you check that the password is being correctly recorded by the initial request (before the user confirmation)? You could do 'bin/dump_db lists/yourlist/pending.pck' and should see the record containing the email address and desired password. That would narrow down if the problem is with your initial scripted request, or a problem with Mailman's processing.
