Valorie, The list can be OPEN, so anyone can subscribe, or it can be set to MODERATE, so you have to approve each subscription manually. Since this list is for Listowners only, the only way I can think of for you to verify is to write to the potential subscription address manually, and at the same time, write to name-of-the-list-owner@rootsweb.com to get a verification.

I suppose I could write to each address and ask them what list they admin, but dang, that sounds like work.

All of the lists default to be Open, unless the owner changes them to Moderate It is very possible as we were moving systems a few weeks back as well as bringing the systems down and back up as we do back up and maintenance procedures, so messages got stuck in queues. I would just check your lists and clear them out.
