As an aside, I use the 'notify list owner' function for this sort of 
thing, automatically mark them as read and simply archive the emails 
locally. It's very useful when people complain that they've been dropped 
from a list and you find out it's because they themselves (or someone 
masquerading as them in one case) unsubscribed them. In the case of the 
masquerading issue, it helped the end user find out (via us) that their 
password to our lists (and to a lot of other sites) had been compromised.

It would be good to have a timestamped audit log though (of 
adds/removals, etc), where the adds/removes were performed from 
(web/email/soap/etc), by who (subscriber/owner/admin), and the address 
of the subscriber. It should also detail subscriber address changes too. 
Doesn't need to be on by default, but it'd nice to be able to just 
enable this without other debugging options. Can be very verbose even, 
as long as all the data is there.
