Heck, i suppose we could set something up that simply creates the new account, copies over the settings and subscriptions from the old one, and deletes the old one - sending email adresses to both addresses in the process. I suppose the nice thing will be having the subscriptions follow - though currently mailman keeps the subscription info with the lists and not with the accounts. I'll have to think about it some more, but it does sound worth doing.
Is this approaching what you're seeking?
I suppose. Although since you say that the subscriptions are kept with the lists that would be a chore to change in the code. It may be too much trouble. I was thinking from the subscriber's perspective rather than the list's perspective which is of course how these things are structured. Reversing the sense of this in the code would probably be a pain. I'll just let it simmer in the back of my cranium for now and try not to let it bother me;-]
