I had the same experience you mentioned. For my recent migration from MM 1.1 to MM 2.0.8, I created new lists on the new server, copied from the old server the subdirectories for my lists under ~mailman/lists and ~mailman/archives to the new server. Then updated the config.db manually using the Web interface. To get the email addresses, use the list_members utility found in ~mailman/bin
I just installed a mailman 2.0.8 on a RH Linux 7.2 server. I had 6 lists on an old server (which I do not have anymore) running mailman 1.x . I was unsuccessful trying to upgrade the lists directly on the mm 2.0.8. IS THERE A WAY I COULD EXTRECT THE LIST MEMEBERS (EMAILS) FROM THOSE OLD LISTS? I think it would be much easier to recreate the lists in 2.0.8 and add the email addresses.
