Autosubscribing people to another list is bad and we try tro avoid it at
all cost.

The solution I suggested to solve the problem was in my mail:

I did a "s/and/an/" -- there was a typo in my mail. Sorry.

A mailman invite afaik is a mail that gets send to you asking you to
subscribe to list foo by clicking on link bar.

That's a bit easier than a normal "subscribe via webpage; wait for mail
with url; click on link in mail; finally subscribed"
