I don't think you do. Moreover, I think it's a scam to try to get
your e-mail address upon reply so they can then spam you since it's
a 'confirmed e-mail address' ... >.> I honestly think this address
should just be removed from the list, IMHO.

Dear List -
Address confirmation is a commonly used to prevent Spam, since
spammers use false email addressed. I would like to remind you that
this is used by this mail list and I do the same as do may
companies. If I choose not to read the email, I delete the email and
the address. I also have the option to not add the book sender to my
address book. The Spam filter I use is provided by earthlink and
similar filters are used by most ISPs.
I hope this clarifies the issue.
Ethan
