So to make this more generic:-
  - how can an external process detect configured lists?
    - preferably in a relatively non-active fashion - ie looking at
      the filesystem
    - if needed by running something to say if list x exists
  - what addresses does a list provide (ie list-request etc)
  - or is there a way of getting mailman to list all the addresses
    that mailman handles (ideally including domain)

That should be pretty easy.

Can't do a great deal on this, but willing to heckle, umm, give
some advice from the sidelines.
The exim.org machine is moving to a more modern platform later in
the year so we may be in a position to realistically look at hosting
a MM3 install then.
