I'm sure Eric will correct me if I'm wrong, but I think LISTSERV needs
to keep its subscriber lists in node-sorted order so it can efficiently
distribute mail and bunch addressees appropriately.  If you sort
manually and replace, results are not predictable, and even if it
survives that, LISTSERV will try to add new users in node sorted order,
but I'm kind of skeptical about LISTSERV surviving that kind of abuse in
the first place.
 
Sorry,
Nick
