[Mailman-Users] How to programmatically disable all mail to member

[Odhiambo Washington]

If the mail to a disabled account is set to bounce, then why have that
account in the 1st place?
Well, I guess you are preserving some mail or something, but if you
are not accepting new mail, I believe it is easier to send such mail
to /dev/null using the MTA than changing anything in Mailman.
Still looking at it, why don't you just unsubscribe the address from
Mailman, because it's useless anyway?
