A solution someone gave me awhile back was to save the emails to a file, one
per line, and do:
cat emails.txt | xargs --max-args 20 ezmlm-sub ~/<listname>

Worked great.

A work-around way, but set up your own admin user (like multadmin), that has
a .qmail file which pipes to a script you made up, which checks that the
address it is coming from is an administrator's address, and then feeds the
contents of the message line-by-line to ezmlm-sub. You might want to use
some method of authentication in the message just so people don't learn
about your multiple-subscription method and abuse it via a simple e-mail
(could be as simple as your favourite word, or could be as complex and safe
as public key encryption).
