No such problem here.  However, I believe mailman can be configured
to auto-uns*b a member if there has been excessive email bounces
to his/her mailbox.  This is most frequently caused by the user's mailbox
being over-quota, if the ISP or email provider has such restrictions.

I don't know if the audifans mailman server is set up this way, but
you should make sure list mails to you aren't frequently bouncing for
some reason.  With the glut of large viral attachments going around
these days, it isn't difficult for an inbox to go overquota in short
order.
