If you added those email addresses to a database table (or maybe you can import it from the text file you create), then you could use sql to set the flags. You could also change the usergroup that way, if you're talking about changing the primary usergroup. It's not the perfect way to change the usergroup, especially if you have custom titles or ranks, but it works if you're just planning to delete the users.

Edit: well, this idea might work - I'd have to think about it a little more. Maybe a php script would be easier.

Edit again: Actually it will work. I created a table called bounced with one column called email. To set the "no admin email" flags:

UPDATE bounced LEFT JOIN user ON (bounced.email = user.email) SET options = options - 16 WHERE options & 16
