Is there a reason you're forcing people to take manual action with 23 hours notice rather than just importing the existing list membership into mailman?
Obviously there's a chance for clearing out dead wood, but with mailman's bounce handling, I just don't immediately see the benefit of having the subscribers lose list traffic because of less-than- timely action.
