[DM-MUG] [Admin] Duplicates, unsubscribing and adding members

[kristau]

I recommend using a web mail account such as Gmail for all of your
mailing list traffic.  I especially like Gmail because it has a very
good spam filter, powerful message "tagging" and filtering to help
keep track of multiple lists, and over 2.5 GB of storage (I have 2836
MB available as of this writing and I'm only using 57 MB).
