Thanks for the info Bill. I agree getting off on the right foot for a new list is important. We have a basic form users fill out which includes our taxonomy for placing the lists. The message the group gets has all the information. The problem is sometimes bits of the key taxonomy are left o

[Mailman-Users] Renaming a list

Hello all, We have come up a few times where a list was created incorrectly. Normally, we catch the mistake, delete the list, and recreate it properly. However, there are times when the mistake is caught after having been in use. So, the delete and recreate is not available to use. I have

FYI, when you rename a list all of the links in the archives are now incorrect. May not seem like a big deal but it's confusing for a user that does a google search, an archived page comes up, they read the page then click the broken link for the list... Quoting schuetzen - RKBA! <[EMAIL PROT

I have a list that is receiving about 200 SPAMS a day (which is being held). I wrote a script to remove all the held messages. However, I would like to rename the list. Initially, I thought the move_list command would be appropriate. I don't particularly want to delete the list and create a new lis

I have an installation of mailman with one list running. It's for my daughter's school. Currently, the list name is 'atrium' and it's description is 'atrium school email list'. I won't go into all the details, but I think it might be wise at this point to rename it 'unofficial-atrium'... the d

[Mailman-Users] Renaming a list...

Is there any quick and dirty way of renaming a list under Mailman? I've run into a situation where I've got 2 lists with about 200 members on each and their names are so close that a quick typo seems to be resulting in a lot of postings going to the wrong list. I've decided the easiest way to re
