Hi, Also the way I understand how MTAs work is postfix or whatever you are using should hold the email if Mailman is offline while you are backing up? Once mailman is backup postfix should deliver?

I'm assuming this is a Mailman 2.1 question since this is a Mailman 2.1 list. If in fact it is Mailman 3, please see https://apc01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Flists.mailman3.org%2Farchives%2Flist%2Fmailman-users%40mailman3.org%2Fmessage%2FWNZDOJY2ABFGUYC2LEYJR7MDAQNX3RYO%2F&data=04%7C01%7Csteven.jones%40vuw.ac.nz%7C371e696ae87c4f24726b08d9df72e130%7Ccfe63e236951427e8683bb84dcf1d20c%7C0%7C0%7C637786506853154069%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000&sdata=lrZFF2hMuKfDjwZg9730xYfHIljLChNMTVfdfrdnvYk%3D&reserved=0 and consider joining https://apc01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Flists.mailman3.org%2Fmailman3%2Flists%2Fmailman-users.mailman3.org%2F&data=04%7C01%7Csteven.jones%40vuw.ac.nz%7C371e696ae87c4f24726b08d9df72e130%7Ccfe63e236951427e8683bb84dcf1d20c%7C0%7C0%7C637786506853154069%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000&sdata=YF3PKWmHus2upMAeY%2FylhBAq1aJwoIiajDI58Q%2FWNZo%3D&reserved=0 and following up there. For Mailman 2.1, it should be sufficient to backup Mailman's mutable data which is in Mailman's archives/, data/, lists/, locks/, logs/, qfiles/ and spam/ directories although locks/ and qfiles/ are pretty specific to the running instance and probably shouldn't be restored from backups. -- Mark Sapiro <[email protected]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
