Try this instead; it will be much faster.

[QUIET] ADD listname DD=ddname [IMPORT] PW=yourpassword
//ddname DD *
[log in to unmask] [*|full name]
[log in to unmask] [*|full name]
...more users, one per line...
[log in to unmask] [*|full name]
/*

This example was copied from section 4.4 of the LISTSERV List Owner's
Manual <http://www.lsoft.com/manuals/1.8d/owner/owner.html#4.4>, where
you will find a complete discussion of the use of the bulk import
facility to add subscribers to a list.
