Ahh. In this case you might want to give me some identifying
information for your lists, because I updated FAQ 1.15 with the
information you had posted on the list, and I identified that with
udel.edu -- I kept wondering if I should ask you about Dr. Mills, and
whether or not you kept your machines in good time sync. ;-)

In the Mailman case, the recipients should not be added to the
list until they confirm their subscription request. At that point,
the address should definitely be good, and you shouldn't have
problems with needing to remove them from the list.
I think that Christopher X. Candreva has given you a good
suggestion with regards to validating addresses with a Perl program,
before adding them to the list.
