nothing: Just subscribe
all lists which need confirmation: Send a single confirmation mail
for all lists and subscribe him to all when he replies.
approval: Send a single subscription request to every list
moderator (even if the moderator is the same person in different
lists, because otherwise, one would have to reject the whole
request if one doesn't want someone to subscribe to a single list).
app+confirm: Send a single mail for every list.
The shortcut would be to keep it as it is now (send a
single mail per subscription request as necessary). That
would work, too, but would be a bit clumsy.
