May I make a feature request for next time you change the db format?
have both nomail and post-only fields (and even bounce-disabled)

I'd to know which addresses were set  to nomail by the user, which ones were
set to nomail by mailman due to  a bounce, and which ones are post-only (the
post-only would be the most important one)
