[Mailman-Users] (Q) How to keep real addresses with email addresses

This question has probably been discussed at length before. But how do people incorporate mailman with a "database" -- perhaps in XML format -- containing other information about list members, eg their real names, addresses etc ?

Am I right in assuming that mailman will not allow email address in the form "tim@maths.tcd.ie <Timothy Murphy>" as majordomo does ?

In my case I'd rather keep more info than that (for a society) in XML format, and then keep that in sync with the mailman list. This surely must be something quite a lot of list-owners would like? Is there a standard way of doing it?
