That might do it but if emails haven’t been validated prior, during, or after the import, then there will be trouble. It will probably work with a mailing list but it’s not best practice to do this in general.
The recommended approach is to encourage your users to come to the site and create an account with the email they used on the mailing list. If the email matches the email of a staged user, the user will assume control of the staged account. If not, a new account will be created.
I went to try to invite all users.
They well received the invite email but when they try to create an account with name and password, when they click on “Accept invite”, nothing’s happening.
So i tried to invite somebody that is not already a staged user and here it’s working fine.
If i watch the Chrome console, i can see an error like that

Hello, I’m sorry for my non-answer.
In fact my forum is only in private mode, so it’s difficult to do something with the URL.
As you can see in my previous messages, the invitation was well received but the users couldn’t do anything with it.To resolve it, and because I’m on a small list with less than 10 users, I modified the email for each user with an email of mine (with dynamic alias on Gmail like myemail+user1@gmail.com), and use forgot password to set a password, and then change the email to put the good user email address.
