Official way to "move" lists?
I'm moving my stuff to a newer/faster machine in a few days; is there a better "approved and recommended" way to transfer entire lists, configs, and archives over to the new machine other than just tarballing up the entire Mailman directory and FTPing it over? E.g., can I reinstall Python and MailMan on the new machine, and only move certain directories?

If your paths are going to be the same, you can just tarball up and move the lists and archives directories (assuming you don't care about the old logs).
