Hello,

We are changing student email from mailboxes, to forwarding addresses. Among 
other challenges, we are exploring various ways to deal with students who are 
subscribed to closed (only subscribers may post) mailing lists.

(There are a lot of similar challenges when switching to an email forwarding 
model - any list members who have gone through this, I would love to pick your 
brain!)

One possibility we're exploring, is to change a student's mailing list 
subscriptions, when they change their forwarding address. We would iterate 
through these address changes and run clone_member, like:

Clone_member --remove --admin  [email protected] [email protected]

We could end up processing as many as 500 address changes nightly (running 
clone_member for each one), with each run of clone_member iterating through all 
mailing lists. I'm concerned that this is much more than clone_member was 
intended for.

Can Mailman developers or heavy uses of Mailman comment on this?

Thanks very much,

Ivan.
