Once you subscribe in new MLs, there is no reason to stay subscribed in the 
old MLs.

The ML Migration Agent ensures that posts to old MLs are forwarded to new 
MLs => you get them, as well as posts to new MLs are forwarded to old MLs 
=> users who are not yet subscribed in new MLs receive them.

Staying logged in to old MLs means that you will receive duplicate posts as 
long as the old MLs work or until you unsubscribe from the old MLs.
