Hi Mailman Users,
The organisation I'm working for is changing it's domain name. I need to process all mailing lists on our MailMan system and alter the subscribed addresses from our current domain to the new one, leaving external subscriber addresses intact.
Has anyone done such a thing, or something similar? DB/python is not my area, so any sample code to open a mailman database file and recurse through subscribed addresses would be very useful.
using the available command line tools, then for each list:
1. use $prefix/bin/list_members to extract the subscriber list to a text file
2. edit the email addresses in the file using sed, a perl script or whatever text manipulation tool is your preference
3. use $prefix/bin/sync_members to tell MM to update the subscriber list
put a shell wrapper around it to iterate over all your lists.
no knowledge of python or MM internals required
