There is a MySQL MemberAdaptor for Mailman at
<http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=839386&group_id=103&atid=300103>,
but I think the most current version is at
<http://trac.rezo.net/trac/rezo/browser/Mailman/>.

These might allow you to use use your SQL database more or less directly
for Mailman membership.

However, it is probably simpler to creat som SQL query which will write
a membership list to a flat file and then use Mailman's bin/sync_members
to update the Mailman list membership.
