That would only be 42 email addresses, so not *too* painful, but if their 
email requires a 'challenge-response' to send to them, how did they get 
subscribed in the first place, as our subscribe method is 
'challenge-response' also, which means they have to receive the email we 
send to them automaticalloy in the first place ...

So, are these a result of forwarding, vs direct subscription?
