We created a mailing list called "list-owners", which we update once
a day via the following command.
/usr/share/mailman/bin/withlist -q -a -r printowners | tr A-Z a-z |
sort | uniq | /usr/share/mailman/bin/sync_members -w=no -g=no -f -
list-owners >>/tmp/list-owner-updates
The printowners helper script, which we put in /usr/share/mailman/bin/
printowners.py, contains the following. (It's probably better to
keep local stuff out of Mailman's bin directory, but since I'm a
python caveman, I just put the local script there anyway.)
#!/usr/bin/python
def printowners(m):
for i in m.owner:
print i
If you want the list moderators (distinct from the list owners),
you'd want to use m.moderator in lieu of m.owner.
