Before I start making my own script, I was wondering whether the feature I need 
is already available. I run Mailman version: 2.1.5.

I have two types of Mailman lists
* some of which members are allowed to subscribe or unsubscribe as desired 
(though some list administrators still need to approve subscriptions)
* and some lists, which members of a certain group must be subscribed to, as 
long as they are part of the group.

The group-members e-mail addresses are extracted from the group and pushed to 
the list using " add_members -wn -r /tmp/group_members.lst mailman-list". 
Likewise are those, no longer part of the group, removed from the list using 
"remove_members -n -N -f /tmp/group_exmembers.lst mailman-list".

Now I want to combine those features, having lists that are updated 
automatically using above method, but at the same time making sure that group 
members, who have manually opted-out from the mailinglist, won't be subscribed 
to the mailinglist automatically again, and also making sure that people, who 
are not part of the group, have the ability to opt-in to the mailinglist 
without being removed by automatic procedure.

Is there a neat way of accomplish this already?
