The potential subscriber gets a confirmation e-mail to confirm she/he
really wants to subscribe. This e-mail must be confirmed by replying
to the e-mail or visiting a web link in the mail.

After confirmation (the confirm part), the list moderator/owner is
notified of the subscription request and must approve it (the approve
part).

If you are saying the addresses are subscribed directly via mass
subscribe, then the "steps required" don't apply. The addresses are
just subscribed immediately.

You could ask them...

OTOH, if Mailman is working and they aren't bouncing, then the mail is
getting as far as the subscriber's incoming MTA, and that's as much as
you can find out.

People, I in particular, have responded to several of your previous
posts and answered questions similar if not identical to some of
these. See the archives at
http://mail.python.org/pipermail/mailman-users/2004-September/thread.html
. Of course, if you haven't received any of those replies, you
probably won't receive this one either. This time, I'll try not
replying directly to you on the theory that maybe you can receive from
the list but not from me. If that doesn't work, I'm going to give up
trying to answer your questions.
