I run CLIMLIST, which has subscription by owner.
 
I have recently been asked to enter a subscription for a person using an IP
number address, i.e. of the form
 
           userid@[141.65.128.48]
 
I am able to send mail to this potential subscriber from the unix-based system
from which I work using this format but I am concerned about what will happen
if I ADD a subscriber using such a format.
 
I am not sure why this person wishes to be subscribed in this way but her
'signature' shouts about not using auto-reply and she has indicated that the
host she is on is rather unstable.  It is in the eastern part of Germany.
 
All help appreciated!
 
Thanks in advance.
