Barry, Recently I started shopping for some web hosting service and obviously was looking for a web hosting service that uses mailman for mailing lists management.
Soon realized that all of these services have installed one instance of Mailman and serve the lists for the various domains using some sort of scripting and the virtual domain functionality in Mailman. Now, not being able to have control of the Mailman installation, there are two problems related to those who would like to move a list with its archives and listmembers from one hosting service to another. 1. Without admin help a listowner can't move the archives of a list from one hosting service to another. This can be resolved by providing an "Upload old archive" option/button under "Archiving Options" and after the 'old' archive is uploaded successfully, the bin/arch command is run for that list. We already have the capability to download full archives, i.e. the *.mbox raw file. In addition, this removes some work from the Mailman admin and into the hands of the listowners. 2. Also, without the help of the Mailman admin, a listowner can't get the full list of listmembers. A button "E-mail me the raw list of listmembers" can run the "bin/list_members" for the list and e-mail it to the list admin from the list's configuration. Any thoughts? thanks, Mentor _______________________________________________ Mailman-Developers mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-developers
