I've found that:

  for email in `cat oldlist` do; ezmlm-sub /path/to/list $email; done

works well for converting majordomo lists to ezmlm.

Actually, for bigger lists:

  xargs -l ezmlm-sub /path/to/list < oldlist

might be a better idea  :)

Either way should be trivial to apply to a database of names...
