Mailman inserts all of these nice headers in the message envelope:

List-Id: The Cypherpunks Mailing List <cypherpunks.lists.cpunks.org>
List-Unsubscribe: <https://lists.cpunks.org/mailman/options/cypherpunks>,
        <mailto:cypherpunks-request at lists.cpunks.org?subject=unsubscribe>
List-Archive: <http://lists.cpunks.org/pipermail/cypherpunks/>
List-Post: <mailto:cypherpunks at lists.cpunks.org>
List-Help: <mailto:cypherpunks-request at lists.cpunks.org?subject=help>
List-Subscribe: <https://lists.cpunks.org/mailman/listinfo/cypherpunks>,
        <mailto:cypherpunks-request at lists.cpunks.org?subject=subscribe>


So, I don't think a separate footer is needed.

If your friend still has trouble subscribing, they can email me, or owner-cypherpunks at lists.cpunks.org which goes to me.

Also, the old domain redirects (email & Web) to the new domain.  So, it should not be possible any more to submit stuff to the old location.

Mailman is set to require a confirmation email, before subscribing.  Perhaps that confirmation message wasn't received?  If you want, I can grep the mail logs in for the friend's address, if troubles persist.

One difference from the old domain is that greylisting is turned on.  I haven't heard of that creating problems, but it is a difference.
