That makes sense, as they are otherwise very innocuous-looking... perhaps
suspiciously so! Simple first name + gmail is almost impossible to get.

- Yes, malformed subscribers are excluded from mailouts.
- While on the dashboard they *look* well-formed, after looking at
your 32 the reason they're flagged is because they have some hidden
trailing whitespace. The email is not actually ***@***.*** (to
take an example), it's ***@***.***\x00 — there's some
hidden characters.
- Additionally, these subscribers look like they came from folks
spamming your comments. Those hidden characters are a good tell for bots,
since it's not something a human would ever type up.
- I'll try to figure out a way to surface that kind of thing in the
dashboard (maybe a notice saying "this email address contains hidden
characters! sus!") because your confusion is definitely understandable.

Hi! My list has at present 32 "malformed" emails that seem, on close inspection, to look just fine. What's the deal with these? What happens to them, are they excluded from mailouts?
