[Mailman-Users] Moving from Yahoo to Mailman

I've finally come to my senses and decided to move a medium-sized list
from Yahoo to my local mailman setup. The question I have is this: how
does one go about subscribing several hundred users to the new list and
still maintaining most of their list preferences? (Moderated, nomail,
digest, etc.) I'm really trying to avoid having to re-set each user's
settings on setup.

Is there some way of massaging Yahoo's "export list" function output into
something that mailman's mass subscription function understands? I can't
seem to find any documentation on this ...

Thanks in advance!

Cheers,
.....G
