I previously used [email protected] as the email address for my mailman
list, set up via Cpanel.
FAQ 6.11 in the Mailman FAQ Wiki at <http://wiki.list.org/x/sYA9>
explains the problems with cPanel in general.
Is it possible to rename the mailman folders and configuration to run in
a subdomain with email address [email protected] retaining the
archive?
Surely someone has changed domain names before and ported their mailman
installation. We just can;t find this on the online doco or discussion
forum/fora.
In general, Mailman does not allow you to change the name of a list. If
you want to do that, you have to create a new list with the appropriate
changes, then bring over all the subscribers and delete the old list.
If you are a list owner as opposed to the site administrator, you will
not be able to copy over the archives of the old list. You would need
the assistance of the site administrator to do that.
However, cPanel made some changes to the way that lists were handled, to
allow for encoding the domain name within the list name. So, they may
have also made changes to the code with regards to changing list names.
You would need to contact your provider or use cPanel resources (as
explained in FAQ 6.11) in order to answer those cPanel-specific questions.
