It appears there was no dumpdb in Mailman 1.0 or 1.1. There is one in Mailman 2.0, but I don't know it it will work. You could try it. However, even Mailman 1.0 has a withlist which might be useful. Here are some other thoughts. There's no way to convert the list admin and moderator passwords. See the 2.1.9 change_pw for why and what to do about it. There's code in Mailman/versions.py that goes back to 1.0. Instead of creating new lists in the new installation, you could try just moving the old lists/<listname>/config.db, at least for one test to see what happens. It might work. It won't solve the password problem, but if it works, it should save you a bunch of work. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
