This entry from the Mailman-Users archive helped me lot

The config.db is indeed converted to a config.pck at first access. I also copied the files in the archive folders and ran
bin/withlist -l -r fix_url mylist

We are also migrating our mailing lists from solaris (Majordomo) to Red Hat Linux (Mailman). I am planning to use the mailing list web admin "mass subscription" upload file feature to load the mailing list to the new server.

Currently we have mailman running on an old Sun sparc with Solaris 8. I installed mailman on a new linux server with Redhat 4. I did some tests and mailman seems to work fine on the new system with newly created lists. The next step is to move the mail lists from the Solaris system to the Redat system. Does someone has done this before? Can I just move the content of the lists, archive/public and archive/private folders? I noticed that Linux is using sometimes a different file extension than on Sun. As an example config.pck is found on linux and config.db is found on Solaris
