Did you also fill the 'Captcha' ?
This had been an important addition for security; as we had
spammers (auto-) subscribing to some of the R mailing lists, and
then spamming whoever *posted* to the list (and reusing their
subject and other tricks as to pass any spam filters).
Last but not least: You *are* subscribed to the list now.
