This appears to be correct. As one of the people who have worked with the cpanel, I can say that I have found no gui mechanism for dumping the subscriber list and everyone's settings. This causes me great concern. It was one of the questions put to our hosting providers. If anyone knows of a method of dealing with this please speak up, I do not profess to be a Mailman expert. I have read that there are command-line options to do this but we don't have access to Mailman directly, it is a shared resource on our hosting server. > a set of config files got corrupted, and truncated on the server, and clug This is not wholly true. We still do not have the reason for how this happened. Szemir answered this based on some discussion we had. Most of it was supposition. > as a user would have no access to them in this case.

The hosting provider were able to give us an old backup of some config files for Mailman insofar as our lists were concerned. I basically had to extract these email addresses by hand from a pck file. There may have been an easier way to do it but I already felt I was under the gun and it took us a day to get that much from them. Overall I think they provided us with good customer service. The issue is not resolved and we are still communicating with them, However, as you can see the list is reinstated and we can banter about as we have been again. People need to lighten up. While it is cool that we have this mailing list, there is nothing earth-shattering here and while we were down for about two days that is not a great deal in the grand scheme of things. - -- Jarrod Major GPG Fingerprint: FA4A 1EA3 A0EE A842 07BB 804C 0090 14F6 BE6E DE3D CLUG President Registered Linux User: #224211 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.2 (GNU/Linux) iQCVAwUBQZUXkACQFPa+bt49AQKrWAQAgNQBz/4QQ8bUJU0u6cOKGten4Lfjje/V tUknVkS7xAi3vbyA/TxAwa8cE1m0daiTudf5SIURKiFX0JrBAV6R6R2eDWoz3uku buHYxvMw8bBDoijfThiX3mSmyP3QNBKE9HFce2b451O4PMFKizwY322uGnIJN9jR nBxcpDRLN88= =TDd4 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ clug-talk mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://clug.ca/mailman/listinfo/clug-talk_clug.ca Mailing List Guidelines (http://clug.ca/ml_guidelines.php) **Please remove these lines when replying
