Looking at the 7.6.2 change log talking about phplist brings me back to a issue with older forums everyone has.
All the old bad emails in the db.

It is extremely difficult to have say send email to 40,000 members and get back say 10,000 bounced emails and then try to fat finger them in ubb to edit the preference send me emails to "no".
It would take forever.

While I agree that using a maillist manager is probably best to circumvent getting your primary email blacklisted.
If I export the email list from ubb to a mail list it , still has bad emails.And then export new members on occasion as they register. Over time more emails will become defunct.

There has to be some method to cleanup ubb for non-legit emails.

Does somebody have a method that works?

.
The only idea I see currently is to export a complete member emal list send it using a mail list manager then get the bounced emails , import that into a net new table in ubb and do a query between the tables to update the user preference to receive emails to no..
I an not sure if this is even doable. I guess it all depends on how to import the bounced list from the mail list manager..
