 I've seen a bunch of people asking about how to do a move to a

 them!  Has anyone actually done it?  I'm keeping the same path names
 for everything, but the lists don't show up on the web interface (I
 can create a list and that works fine).  Thanks!

I'm going to be moving some lists later this month. I imagine it should be pretty easy -- I won't try to copy any of the existing mailman configuration files, merely replicate them (as appropriate) on the new server. I will also make a few modifications to them, as I set them up. For one thing, all interactions with mailman will now be SSL-encrypted.


Once the lists are up and tested and shown to be running correctly, it should be a simple matter to turn off the old server, change the aliases to forward to the new one, change the MX records, turn the old server back one, and import the old archives while waiting for everyone to pick up the DNS changes.
