I've not done that many, but Mailman 2.1.1 a "file upload" option that I used to incorporate a fairly large list of names. It didn't seem to have any problem with the list. For your own sanity, you may want to break the list down into several smaller files, and import them one at a time so you can more easily review the "Error subscribing" list of addresses. I had the text file set up with address on a separate line in the format of:
First Last <username@domain.name>
Thanks for the comments everyone!
I just added the subs through the web interface in 6 groups of 500 each. The software didn't even flinch. Very nice.
Thanks to the developers of this Mailman software. It is awesome!!!
