You could make a front-end to mailman that would issue the requests to join 
both lists. Personally I would be against this unless you are giving a 
person an option whether they join the second list or not.

I have heard there is a Canadian government anti-spam legislation requiring 
that people opt-in. Automatically adding people to a second list may go 
against the legislation.
