I sent back instructions for correctly signing on UUS-L, in case s/he
really wanted to.  Along with the explanation that if one subscribed
to this many lists, one's mailbox was likely to fill up every 5 minutes
and get one into lots of trouble with one's system manager and the
adminstrators of all the lists who had to handle bounces.  I suggested
that signing on to more than 5 lists at once was folly, considering
the traffic on some of them.
