Move the directories and files in the lists/ directory. At a minimum
all you really need for list settings, members, member options and
passwords is the lists/<listname>/config.pck (or config.db for pre
2.1.x) file for each list.

You can move a config.* from an older release to a newer release and
Mailman should automatically update it on the new release, but I think
this is only guaranteed for config.pck files. In the case of a
config.db file, there are possible incompatibilities if the Python
versions are different on the source and destination.
