ban_list entry breaks bulk member import

[Wlanguy2]

Mailman 2.1.9 (python 2.4.4) on Solaris 8 SPARC:

When an email address, e.g. <email address hidden> is inserted into the ban_list
and the same member is tried to become a regular member, an error is
triggered.

The is really critical, cause automatically generated bulk imports fail.

 echo "<email address hidden>" | /usr/local/mailman/current/fhbi/bin/add_members
-a n -w n -r - verteiler-zv
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/local/mailman/current/fhbi/bin/add_members", line 255, in ?
    main()
  File "/usr/local/mailman/current/fhbi/bin/add_members", line 235, in
main
    addall(mlist, nmembers, 0, send_welcome_msg, s)
  File "/usr/local/mailman/current/fhbi/bin/add_members", line 135, in
addall
    mlist.ApprovedAddMember(userdesc, ack, 0)
  File "/usr/localhost/mailman/current/fhbi/Mailman/MailList.py", line 958,
in ApprovedAddMember
    raise Errors.MembershipIsBanned, pattern
Mailman.Errors.MembershipIsBanned: <email address hidden>

Please fix as fast as possible.

many thanks and best regards
