Hi, It is an emergency mailing list that only gets used in a major emergency, 19000 subscribers. We dont really care who subscribes but we dont want "important" ppl un-subscribing and then complaining they didnt get teh emergency email down the track.

So I find the described request slightly surprising. Kudos to Mark for not pushing back on this basis ... but perhaps the OP can provide a little more context for why this would be a generally GoodThing.
