I have not been able to find a way to automatically delete the mailing
list in question. I did find a way to create a mailing list from the
command line but of course without deleting it first that does no good.
I just manually deleted the mailing list using qmailadmin, re-created
it, then let my script re-populate it.
Also, I've move the list-create script to cron.daily instead of
cron.hourly. No use taking up CPU cycles!
Thanks all!

Why can't you have your script "Rebuild" the mailing list everytime it runs.
That way, it adds new accounts and purges old ones..??? There's got to be a
way to delete all of the address on the list, and then you can use your
script to repopulate it.

Eric,
I looked at and tried the 'built-in' function and it was horrible. It didn't
work correctly at all. I cannot currently find any documentation on it
(looking in the wiki). If you (or anyone) happens to know the name and
location of said function, I'll gladly take a look at it.
Thanks,
Scott

Is it possible to have the mailing list software that comes with QMT to
automatically remove a subscriber if the email bounces back to the server?
Example: I have created a script that runs once a day and gathers all of
the email addresses of my domains and if they aren't already, subscribes
them to a mailing list. This way if I need to email all users because
of, say, a planned outage, all the email addresses are there. However,
as people leave the company I delete their email account but they remain
on the mailing list.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Scott
There's a function built in to send an email to everyone in a domain. I
don't know how well that works or not though.
I think I'd look at modifying that capability to do it for all domains
on the server. That way you shouldn't need to mess with ezmlm or
subscriptions.
