[NTLUG:Discuss] ezmlm question

Actually, this is an NT question, but I'm on a quest for new Linux
converts, so it's a somewhat important question.

ezmlm allows for remote subscription services with the following To:
format in a message to the listserver:

test-list-subscribe-me=hex.net at listserver.somedomain.com

Problem is that M$ Outlook wants to truncate after the '=' sign,
completely munging the address.  Of course, Netscape and elm assume
nothing in this regard (as is expected).

So, is there anyway to configure ezmlm to recognize a character
separator other than '='?  Or is there anything I can disable on Outlook
to do the same?  I've grepped all of the ezmlm-idx docs, but didn't find
anything addressing this issue.
