You're right about the data files, but it won't hurt in the least to move the whole thing over and then install the new Mailman. The new Mailman is designed to install right over top of an existing one and then to upgrade the existing lists on the fly. Good Luck with whichever way you do it! Jon

Hi, If I am moving an existing mailman from one server to another - what files do I need to copy ? The new server will be setup the same as the old server, same dir layout... but may be a different kernel/linux (or even mailman, but all post 2.1.2). I was looking in the mailman home directory,
