Bug Description
The mailing list login/(un)subscribe form does not
accept email addresses with slashes in the name. In
particular, the user has a LotusNotes email address
which contains slashes.
For example, an email address such as
<email address hidden> will not be
accepted by the form. It responds that the email
address is illegal.

I can confirm this bug on Mailman 2.1.4. Addresses with
slashes are rejected as hostile although they conform to
rfc822. Such addresses are also used on some systems to
deliver mail to subfolders, e.g.:
user+folder/ subfolder@ domain
