  Do you know if they're reselling only the currently active membership,
  or all names they have on file (including expired names)?

No, I do not, therefore I suggest you ask them to remove your name from the
list, regardless.

I could argue either way: frankly, I expect that they are selling only the
active or recently expired memberships. It costs about a dollar apiece to
perform mailing, and you want to maximize your return. Only folks who are
current members, or expired in the last year or so can be relied upon not to
have moved.  But MBNA could have ordered any size slice of data: I didn't
ask.
