Anyone who can help -
We have a "home grown" mailing list setup right now and are purchasing
new hardware and moving to Mailman. I need to migrate the current lists
to the new environment. I have the following data files (all are plain
text, colon-delimited, flat files) on the current system:
list.db - this has the following information about the list:
name_of_list:Brief
description:open/closed:un/moderated:auto/by_referral:list_owner*:department
people.db - list_owner*:List Owners Full Name:Phone_number:email_address
<list_name>.dis - this is a list of all members of the list
*list_owner = email address without "@du.edu"
I know I can use add_members after I have created the list and simply
use my *.dis files as input. I also know that I can use config_list to
change list parameters, though I am unsure of the necessary format of
the input filename - an example here would be great! The biggie here is
how can I script newlist to read from a file to generate lists so that I
can do the next steps? I am familiar with expect and could possibly
hack something together, but was hoping there was a "better" way.
Any and all help would be greatly appreciated!
