Is there a mechanism for a list administrator to change a list member address without going through the confirmation dialog.
I've got a case where listmember@bellyup.com wants to become listmember@newisp.com. While the confirmation goes to newisp.com and requires the listmember response, I'd prefer to have a "just do it now" administrator method. Is there one?

You can do it with a withlist script. In fact, I just wrote one. See <http://veenet.value.net/~msapiro/scripts/> or <http://fog.ccsf.edu/~msapiro/scripts/>.

Just to add my two cents...
It would be a very desirable feature in the web interface.
The only other option as of now is to unsubscribe the user and then re-subscribe him or her via the mass subscription interface. The big problem with that approach is that it sets all user settings (digest, mail delivery, etc.) to the list defaults.

I totally agree. We'll get this into the next version. Generally I
only do this in response to a user request so I /want/ them to do the
confirmation dance. Still, I recognize this as an important use case.
