Either you're confused or I am. Michael sends me two messages, once as
Michael (which is unsolicited, and he's not whitelisted, so gets a CAPTCHA),

subscribed to 
the list. 

But both messages are sent to an active subaddress, so they are
accepted without a CAPTCHA. See

How would Michael's MUA know the subaddress? Only the list expander knows
the subaddress. Michael's MUA sends mail to the main address, which replies
with a CAPTCHA.
