Is there a policy in these groups regarding including outsiders in a conversation by merely adding the person's address to the email? We - he and I -installed Fedora on his machine, and he is eager to come aboard, but he has yet to join an email group.
Adding him as a CC won't automatically have other people's replies copied to him. Most people here do reply to list. (Or for the lists that mung the reply-to header, just reply. I forget whether this particular list does reply-to munging, as I strip those headers.) So likely further replies in a thread wouldn't copy him. Also when he replies his messages would either be held for moderation or rejected. (Again depending on the particular list.)
So to participate effectively he would want to subscribe. He can always unsubscribe later.
