I believe this is the intent of the periodic renewel function you can
define for your list.  I've tentatively set up my list to require
subscribers to renew their subscriptions every six months in the hopes
that this will clean out the NOMAIL accretion you mention.  If I'm
wrong about this, I'd appreciate hearing from someone with experience
at setting up and running lists over long periods with the renewal
options selected.
