Many people have more than one E-mailadress, but the other
E-mailadresses are forwarded. If they write to a Mailing list they
don't remember which adress they used to subscribe. If the mailing
list is writing for subscribers only (which I recommend in most cases)
the moderator gets a lot to moderate until most of these extra adresses
are allowed to post to the list.

I usually have long lists there.

For the same reason users often have problems when unsubscribing.

Should do nearly the same thing, but brakes the principle that all
subscribers subcribed theirselfs with a will of its own. Do these
users get an extra monthly membership reminder?
