We're hitting a snag in our effort to migrate from majordomo to listserv.
Many of the majordomo subscribers don't have full names, just usernames and
addresses.  So, when we try and do something like QUIET ADD MYLIST
[log in to unmask], we get back this error message:

[log in to unmask] is not yet in the signup file. Please specify the full name of
that person, as in "ADD MYLIST [log in to unmask] Joe H. Smith".

We don't know foo's full name and would rather not be forced to dummy up
something.  We're in the process of rooting through the documentation but
can't find any obvious reference to a switch that will relax the full name
requirement.  I'm assuming this is a server, not a list issue since all
lists are required to submit adds with a full name.  Anyway around this
requirement?
