MGR: Magic Addresses

That was really annoying.

Anyway, what I was doing was modifying the managers' list's "magic"
addresses (and learning something I didn't know about procmail in the
process).  Because of all the wacky forgeries and whatnot floating around,
we've been getting a lot of bogus subscribes via the magic addresses, so I
set up a daemon to watch them, and respond with the below message (I
decided to pick on fudge for awhile instead of managers).

Anybody's getting any weird responses to their -on addresses, let me know
and I'll set their groups to respond like this for the time being.  Once I
get the registration/whitelist up and running, this won't be necessary.
