    How can I update all the subscribers (or some of them) to change, for example, whether or not they are “confirmed”?  If I import them from constant contact, for example, this would be a good time to ask them to re-confirm that they want to continue receiving our newsletter.  However, the import tool (this is in version 3) imports them as confirmed – there’s no option to do anything else.  The “Massive changes” tool doesn’t allow us to change the confirmed status.

    Hi there is no method, you should work directly on the database.

    Ok, I’ll do that.  It’s been a LONG time since I did any SQL work.  <sigh>

    Actually, I just cheated instead: I exported the table from Newsletter, edited it in Excel, and then imported it back to Newsletter.  A kludge but it works.
