Ezmlm is a mailing list manager. It is a software that sends out emails to the subscriber to your mailing list. Actually, if it is installed on the server where you website is hosted, it might be available to you too. There is also a simple web user interface for configuring it.
You should ask you administrator or contact the company where your website is hosted. I hope that I could help with this short answer.

I have no idea what it is, where it is, do I buy it, do I install it, is it part of the program, etc. etc. etc.? Tell what it is and what to do. If you do I will wash your car for a week.

I assume you are using ezmlm. ezmlm does have the feature that it will remove bad email addresses automatically. It doesn't happen immediately since there is the possibility that someones mail would be down for a few days and they shouldn't be instantly removed from the mailing list. But in effect, he is correct. ezmlm will remove the bad email addresses and you can determine which ones were removed by comparing the two listings. Ken Jones
