Interesting... You need to unsubscribe the folks with the initial ' in front of their names. Try escaping the quote with a \ in front of it: ~mailman/bin/remove_members <listname> "\'[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
If that doesn't work then use a small program using withlist to try and remove the bad email addresses. There was an example program sent just yesterday that did something very similar (and it worked). I'll wager that you can't add the user again since the address matches the one with the single quote in front - as the single quote would be ignored by the compare when Mailman does a search to see if the person is already subscribed.
