Mailman re-enables delivery when your address changes.

Bug Description

My email address changed. I went to a list on python.org
(edu-sig) where I am subscribed, and changed my address
to reflect the new address. I then clicked the box to
change this globally. I immediately started receiving
mail messages from the high-volume list, python-list
which is also on python.org even though I have disabled
the delivery there. I had to disable this by hand.

I'm running a stable 2.1 but I suspect this will be
a bug everywhere.

Hmmm, edu-sig is 2.1.9 Maybe that is not the stable version? I forget
which is which.

This has been fixed in SVN for Mailman 2.1.10 and 2.2.

Note that if delivery was disabled by bounce, it will still be enabled for
the new address, but not if it was disabled by admin or user.
