The process begun in Dec 2017 was completed now, in mid-Aug. Transitioning our mailing list with 60k subscribers to google groups. Had to move slowly due to the limits set on directly adding users, 100 per day per group, and only in batches of 10 email ids per addition.
Had asked PB to unconfirm users who have been moved to groups instead of unsubscribe, because unsubscribe will send them a mail saying they have been unsubscribed.
Points to note:
(a) any user you add will get an email
(b) for a strictly mailing list only functionality, remove posting permissions for everyone except owner and manager, under Permissions -> Posting Permissions, like
Google groups does handle bounces, and it is advisable to remove ids which bounce -

(Automating signup though google docs or google forms or something would be great. An example is given here,

PS wrote his own implementation which is on script.google.com as a GSuite script, I think.)
