It's relatively trivial to extract those addresses, and, say, feed them through to sync_members(8)... Pulling in the name (if that's your fancy) could also be done quite easily. As for passwords, I'd not do this, at all; particularly if you've not zapped the password-reminders crontab. You'd also, presumably need to unsalt the password-hash stored in WP. I'd just generate a random password for Mailman. It's trivial (although, quite how so many failo…) to receive a password reminder, after all. (Maybe add in a 'Mailman password' field into the WP users' table, and in the user's settings pages, and feed that to Mailman?) Is it possible? I'd say: email addresses: yes names: yes passwords: no, and you shouldn't.

It's relatively trivial to extract those addresses, and, say, feed them through to sync_members(8)... I think the OP wants to go the other way. I'm not sure what's available on the WordPress side, but a Mailman withlist script (see bin/withlist --help) along the lines of def get_addr_pw(mlist): for member in mlist.getMembers(): em = mlist.getMemberCPAddresses(member) pw = mlist.getMemberPassword(member) rn = mlist.getMemberName(member) print '%s %s; %s' % (rn, em, pw) will print name, address and password in the form Joe Cool jc...@example.com; jcpasswd for each member. If you have (or install) the MySQL-python package, you could probably update the WordPress user database directly in the same script. -- Mark Sapiro m...@msapiro.netThe highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, Californiabetter use your sense - B.
