[Mailman-Users] Rogue address in mailing list

[John Price]

I'm running Mailman 2.1.5 on Gentoo.  My list had about
60K members.

I have this rogue email address that is half subscribed and
half not.

When I try to list the address with list_members, I get
an error (shown below), but if I try to remove the
address with remove_members, it says the address is not a
member of the list!

This is also affecting posting to the list (the emails get
put in the shunt dir and I've included the error from the
error log file below).

How can I use withlist or some other way to remove this
member completely (I don't know much about Python, so
please be explicit)? Also, is there a patch to fix this?

Thx,
John
