As you all know, Feedburner has become a great tool for any bloggers, webmasters or generally website owners. Many of your traffic come from feed readers and if your websites do not have feed account available, it can be a big loss. You can even making money with your feed via Google Adsense too.
Among thousands of your feed subscribers, how many of them have been confirmed and how many of them have been unconfirmed? The unconfirmed subscribers will never receive your blog updates and you will definitely loose a big amount of traffic then.
I have explored many times and finally I got one tool that could help me do this automatically. It is Notify Unconfirmed Subscribers. This tool will allow you sort out your unverified subscribers and a box where you can type your message to send to them by a click.
All of those unverified subscribers will get your message and they will proceed to get their emails verified if they are still using those emails. Otherwise, you should remove those spam emails from your feedburner account.
I have tested this plugin and it worked perfectly and the percentage of my unverifiedsubscribers went down from 30% to less that 3%. That is good and I guess the remaining 3% is either spammers or no longer used emails.
You can download this plugin to use on your own and remember that your hosting must have email feature enabled to use this tool. I think all paid hosting providers support mail feature otherwise, you should do it manually which is not feasible.
Good luck and enjoy. Remember that feed subscribers are traffic and money too.

The plugin no longer works. However I found this alternative way to send reminders to unverified subscribers: http://techsplurge.com/13647/notify-send-reminders-unconfirmed-subscribers-mailchimp/
