Ah, I like this tactic (sending an email) better for the reasons you 
mentioned. Can you point out some mailman docs/examples about using 
such a SQL database? Suppose I centralize the membership database on 
these Mailman tables can i still add some extra columns that would have 
meaning to my other uses but Mailman would just ignore? Is this not a 
wise idea to "pollute" the Mailman tables?
