1. Can someone tell me if my hunch about not being able to move to a new server and back without access to the mailman command line utils is right?
hmm. I had to do this recently, and as long as the hostname and Email domain is the same, I think you might be able to do this. But I wouldn't sware to it. At any rate, there's a FAQ entry about this in the FAQ on the Wiki.
4. Did I overlook something? Is there some way to set up mailman during my server rebuild so that multiple domains can be supported under a single instance of mailman WITHOUT forcing all lists to use the same hosting domain name?
You can do this as long as you avoid having lists with the same name. So you can have [email protected] and [email protected] but not [email protected] *as well* as [email protected].
If you want to avoid name collisions, you pretty much have to use separate installs per domain, and also you need to do some playing around to make sure that the mail is delivered to the right domain. See the thread at http://mail.python.org/pipermail/mailman-users/2009-October/067364.html for what I ended up doing in order to achieve this.
