Hi Michael,
I made some experiments a few weeks ago. Something like

-- This strings are only for testing
-- they should be parsed from the form

property pList : "MyMailinglist"
property pName : "Thomas Biedorf"
property pMail : "tom@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx"

try
           tell application "MacjordomoPPC1b10"
                Subscribe List {pList} User {pMail} Name {pName}
           end tell
on error
        return "error"
end try

should work. The only problem is to parse the strings from your form.
There should be some examples out there, your script has to begin with

on handle CGI request path_args with posted data post_args
           .... extract the strings from post_args and subscribe user
end handle CGI request

and must reside with ".acgi" at the end in your cgi-bin folder.
I do not know if Macjordomo sends the confirmation-message after
the Subscribe! As you see, I do not have an "all in one" solution. ;-(

Hope it helps nevertheless!

Kind regards,
Thomas
