Here are some > directions to use the WHO command: As Brian notes, the email `who` command can be ysed to extract list membership as can the command line bin/list_members, and either of these lists can be used as input to bin/add_members or the admin Mass Subscribe function, but these operations do not preserve user options, passwords, etc. The one single way to move everything is to obtain a copy of Mailman's lists/<listname>/config.pck file and move it, and maybe also get the lists archives/private/<listname>.mbox/<listname>.mbox file and use it to rebuild the archive. See <https://apc01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwiki.list.org%2Fx%2F4030682&data=02%7C01%7Csteven.jones%40vuw.ac.nz%7C75293fc02bd3424b75ce08d85db604a6%7Ccfe63e236951427e8683bb84dcf1d20c%7C0%7C0%7C637362383683015426&sdata=PrDZgGYCfB1WATOQ%2F704ENqYRT37jR9F2zQeWJ1D8dc%3D&reserved=0> for more info. All the above assumes the new domain is on a different server. If it is just a different virtual domain on the same server, see <https://apc01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwiki.list.org%2Fx%2F4030617&data=02%7C01%7Csteven.jones%40vuw.ac.nz%7C75293fc02bd3424b75ce08d85db604a6%7Ccfe63e236951427e8683bb84dcf1d20c%7C0%7C0%7C637362383683015426&sdata=wWY3UdGgl6lZd5dV%2FZjI%2FDu5G2OJX4HBzGQ8rZBJfWo%3D&reserved=0>. -- Mark Sapiro <m...@msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
