Bad mailman member entry

Hi, one of the subscribers to movitz-devel is unable to post there. It
appears that there is something wrong with his entry in the membership
database, because I'm unable to remove him using the administrator
interface. Possibly the problem is something to do with extra
white-space characters in the email-address, I suspect there is an
trailing TAB character that snuck in there somehow.

Anyways, I'm not familiar with mailman, so any help with resolving
this would be great. The entry in question is mbealby at gmail.

Thanks,

Yep, tab stuck in there.  Hassle to get it out, probably a bug in
Mailman that it's not easier.  Anyways, I think I got it.

Thanks,
