Subscriber.AddAndResubscribeWithCustomFields

Adds a subscriber to a subscriber list, including adding custom field data for the subscriber.

If the list has been set as double opt-in, they will be sent the verification email, otherwise they will be sent the confirmation email you have set up for the list being subscribed to.

Please note:

1. Since this method uses an array for the custom fields it can only be accessed via SOAP, and not HTTP-GET/POST.
2. If the subscriber is in an inactive state or has previously been unsubscribed, they will be re-added to the active list. Therefore, this method should be used with caution and only where suitable.
