Meanwhile, I received automatic answers to my two unsuccesful confirmation 
e-mails. They both claim that the confirmation string is invalid. However, 
the confirmation string worked when confirming via the website.

The only problem I can imagine at the moment is that the URLs with the 
confirmation string were broken into two lines in my confirmation e-mails. 
However, Mailman should take the string from the subject line, shouldn’t it?

The error notifications told me that for each of my confirmation e-mails, the 
last paragraph was “ignored” while everything before it was “unprocessed”. 
What does that mean?

Best wishes,
Wolfgang
