I have previously posted to this list about lists that I have whose membership is based on external sources (e.g., a Human Resources database). I update the list memberships daily via

 sync_members

One problem I have is with bounce processing. All bounces are processed by Mailman, which updates a bounce_score for the subscriber. Some of these lists are used infrequently, so I set

 bounce_info_stale_after = 40

I have set

 bounce_notify_owner_on_disable = Yes

so the owner will see all subscriptions disabled due to bounces.

I have not changed

 bounce_score_threshold = 5.0

so there can be a number of bounces before the threshold is reached, the subscription is disabled, and the list owner is notified.

I want to know about all bounces so that I can have the HR database updated, if necessary. What I want to do is run a cron job daily that will list all of the subscriptions in all of the lists where bounce_score>0. I started cloning list_members, but I decided that before I go too far I should ask this list (1) if anyone has done this and can share the code, and (2) if this is the proper way to proceed. Thanks.
