am about to 'reject' all of them and request that anyone still waiting
to subscribe please re-subscribe at which point they will be approved
That seems a very bad way of dealing with a back log .
Add moderators perhaps would be a better way and more responsible.
I have seen a few complaints from legitimate users about getting on
the list and this just adds to the problems users have to explain to
prospective users.
I would advise a rethink on that idea.

quickly.
Please make sure you only request subscription to one of the lists.
To re-iterate:
cctalk is un-moderated, cctech is moderated
cctalk is a superset of cctech
Anything posted to cctalk appears immediately
Anything posted to cctech is cross-posted to cctalk immediately
Anything posted to cctalk OR cctech is (cross-)posted to cctech if the
moderator (me!) feels it is on-topic - therefore they will always be a
delay before postings appear on cctech
There are some posts in cctech which are bypassing moderation - we hope
to sort this out soon.
