[Mailman-Developers] Little bug in Mailman/Default.py

The comments say:
# 0 means do nothing
# 1 means disable and send admin a report,
# 2 means nuke'em (remove) and send admin a report,
# 3 means nuke 'em and don't report (whee:)
DEFAULT_AUTOMATIC_BOUNCE_ACTION = 2

The problem  is that the comments  are incorrect, 2 is  actually disable and
don't notify me

I'm changing this to 3 (which really is nuke'm and send admin a report), but
now I have the following problem:
Due to  a mail problem, the  archiver Email address for  sourceforge bounced
for  a  little  while. While  we  thought   it  caused  the  address  to  be
unsubscribed from some lists, we simply mass-resubscribed the address to all
the lists.

Turns out  that the address was  simply disabled, so we  didn't fix anything
and it's still disabled and many lists have been losing archives for about a
month now :-(

I am looking at unsubscribing the archiver Email from all the lists and then
resubscribing it,  but is there  some script that  would allow me  to easily
switch subscriber's flags from the command line (test and set would be ideal
although dumpdb already kind of allows me to test)

Thanks
Marc
