#890 No leading dash on email addresses accepted

[markcov]

mailman's web interface rejects emails that start with
a dash.
I.E. -username@domain.tld

Running 2.1.1 on RH9

error message:
Error subscribing: -test@domain.tld -- Hostile address
(illegal characters)

According to RFC2822 this should be a valid email
address. (If I read it correctly)

There's a configuration option to change this: http://www.postfix.org/postconf.5.html#allow_min_user
