If you send a message to the list subscription address, and your mail logs
show the MX for that domain accepting the message, you've done your part.

If you never receive the list's confirmation/challenge message in return, the
next step is to contact the listmaster/postmaster of the list domain and ask
them to investigate -- we can't tell you anything about how those lists are
run.
