Do you mean the letter of alphabet tables of the Membership List under
the Member Management...Section?

Are you saying you get a notice of a pending subscription from Mailman
that says
----------------------------- start
Your authorization is required for a mailing list subscription request
approval:
For: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
List: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
At your convenience, visit:
http://www.example.com/mailman/admindb/list
to process the request.
----------------------------- end
Or you get a summary of requests, and you go to the admindb url and
approve the subscription request and [EMAIL PROTECTED] doesn't appear
on the Membership List under the Member Management...Section?
If yes, then I don't know what's going on. If something else, please be
more specific about what member list table, what e-mail and what
action you take.

There are several ways to get a membership list. The command line tool
bin/list_members will list all members. The Membership List under the
Member Management...Section lists all members but not in a convenient
form, but see
http://starship.python.net/crew/jwt/mailman/#throughtheweb for a way
to script this and get a nice list. The e-mail 'who' command and the
web roster both give reasonably usable lists, but they don't show
those members who've opted not to be shown.
Note that if "Conceal the member's address" is checked in
new_member_options under the General Options Section, all new members
will be opted out of the latter two lists, but I don't think that is
your issue because it also applies to mass subscription.
Once you have a list, you can process it via Mass Removal under the
Member Management...Section.
