There is a parameter you can set in mm_cfg.py

VERP_CONFIRMATIONS = Yes

Currently this only affects invitations, not subscription request
confirmations.

For invitations, it changes

Subject: confirm 4ddb7163459cbaed6c1055e2bad937e8fbf40126
From: test_2-request at grizz.org

to

Subject: You have been invited to join the Test_2 mailing list
From: test_2-confirm+23a6e1fdf979dd223e7466e95deb10f486ba3b79 at grizz.org

I think that currently the only way to get this for confirmations is to
hack the code.

The subscription confirmation is a template named verify.txt. See the
FAQ

Article 4.48 for information on installing modified templates on a
per-list, per-virtual domain or site wide basis.
