Actually the missing list is called: dailymail..
I went to /var/lib/mailman/lists/dailymail and found these files: config.pck config.pck.corrupt config.pck.last config.pck.safety config.pck.MY-MAIL-SERVER-ADDRESS.11461 config.pck.MY-MAIL-SERVER-ADDRESS.2530 config.pck.MY-MAIL-SERVER-ADDRESS.2554 config.pck.MY-MAIL-SERVER-ADDRESS.2593 config.pck.MY-MAIL-SERVER-ADDRESS.2608 config.pck.MY-MAIL-SERVER-ADDRESS.9818 pending.pck request.pck could the correct file be there? do I have to rename any of these files to make it work again? if there's nothing I can do, is there a way to backup the list of members in this missing list to a text file so I can format the server and install mailman again and reconfigure the lists ?
