We have a list member that got disabled due to bounces, but that should be fixed after we implemented DMARC and SPF.

So as I don't know how to access the disabled status from the CLI (we have no GUI), I tried to delete and re-subscribe them. But although they are listed as a member, they cannot be deleted:

# sudo -u list mailman members list@domain.tld | grep "$x" M... <M....@web...> # sudo -u list mailman delmembers -m "$x" -l list@domain.tld Member not subscribed (skipping): M... <M....@web...>

It looks like $x is M... <M....@web...>. It should be just M....@web...

How can I fix this from the command line? Either by restoring their "disabled" status, or deleting and re-subscribing them?

There is no mailman subcommand to change a members delivery status. You can do it in mailman shell with an interaction like

# sudo -u list mailman shell -l list@domain.tld
Welcome to the GNU Mailman shell
Use commit() to commit changes.
Use abort() to discard changes since the last commit.
Exit with ctrl+D does an implicit commit() but exit() does not.
The variable 'm' is the list@domain.tld mailing list
 >>> mbr = m.members.get('M....@web...')
 >>> mbr.preferences.delivery_status = DeliveryStatus.enabled
 >>> commit()
