Of course you can subscribe via email; a message to <list>-request with "help" in the subject is probably the easiest way to get instructions on how to do that. See templates/help.txt for what that message would contain, if you haven't yet installed Mailman.
When you say "transfer all of them over to a file", do you mean "transfer them to be subscribers to the Mailman mailing list by putting their names in a file and then submitting that file as input to Mailman"?
The "mass-subscribe" option on the Membership Management page will take more than 30 at a time, so that's not a limitation you need to worry about as far as I know...but easier than that is to use ~mailman/bin/add_members. Read the top part of that file for documentation.
Mailman requires that your users have passwords; it's simply part of the program. Many people have asked for this to be configurable, but it is not yet. But the password can be randomly assigned, and can be changed by the user through the web page at any time.
