Use the mlmmj-sub command directly:

$ mlmmj-sub -L /path/to/list -a some@address.org

Look at mlmmj-sub -h for options.

It has to be the ownership of the process running mlmmj.

This is not implemented in mlmmj. But since mlmmj uses From: and not
envelope from, you can send a mail to the subscribe address, with the
From: changed.
