[Mailman-Users] Changing list name

2013-10-09 Thread William McQueen
I've been asked to change a list I manage to a different name. How is that
done?

If that can't be done, how would I transfer all of the subscribers to a
newly created list, *without* asking these very, very busy folks to
resubscribe.

Thanks,
Bill in Toronto

[Mailman-Users] Changing List Name

2004-07-14 Thread lists
Since v2.1.5, the FAQ's are no longer correct in changing a list name.  The Realname 
cannot be changed - error occurs and tells you are not allowed to change ral name.  
Any idea how to do so now?

Cannot change/import setting through config_list either. Same error cannot change real 
name.

Use config_list to dump the list config, make a new list and then use 
config_list to import the old list settings and then move the users 
over.

Re: [Mailman-Users] Changing list name - any scripts or utilities?

2003-03-06 Thread Heather J. Lubinsky
Thanks!!! The perl script works!
I am just learning perl and all of this stuff so I didn't have a clue how to
do a script to change something in the files.
You have now cut my job down from over 1 hour a list to about 10 minutes a
list.

Thank you!

I just tried this and it worked fine for me.  I'll detail the steps I took
and perhaps you'll notice something you have done differently that would
account for the different behavior you're getting.

$ ~mailman/bin/newlist newname [EMAIL PROTECTED] password
$ cd ~mailman/archives/private
$ cp oldname.mbox/oldname.mbox newname.mbox/newname.mbox
$ ~mailman/bin/arch newname

I then checked the list archive page and the link appears to be correct.

 Anyone have any ideas how to change the more info on this list link
other
 than edited EVERY html archive file?

Even this wouldn't be a big deal.  You could use a quick perl command to do
this:

$ cd ~mailman/archives/private/newname
$ perl -pi -e 's|listinfo/oldname|listinfo/newname|g' `find . -name
'*.html'`

I don't know though if you do this whether or not subsequent archives will
get created right or not.  Something like the method above would be better.

Of course, it would be handy to wrap all of this into a quick script to
rename a list.  Surely someone else has already done this.  Anyone have a
pointer to the archives where this might have already been answered? :)

Excellent.  Should I expect a kickback?  ;-)

Let the list know if future archives get created with the proper links.

If you know the reason for the rule, know you are breaking it, and know why
the rule does not apply, go ahead and break it.

That should work, although you would still have the problem that list
archive links referenced from Google and other web pages would be messed
up.  I'd consider adding RewriteRule's to the web server to force all
references to the old lists to switch to the new list name.

I don't have any problems with google and such because everything is private
and there are no links.

Anyone have any ideas how to change the more info on this list link other
than edited EVERY html archive file?
