This issue appears to be a case where the current value is is not in the vocabulary. Since the vocabulary contains only the user's preferredemail address, the user appears to have another address from the merge set as the address for the mailing list. This is probably the address in NEW status.

If I can verify this is the case, we can update the email address in the production db to fix the user's issue. What we do not understand is how a preferred or confirmed email address can be set to NEW. The mailing lists could be set to use the preferred email address during the merge, but I think it is wrong to not honour the user's original choice.
