We have a running 2.1.12 installation that was done long ago via an external consultant. It hasn't been changed in years, but I would like to upgrade this to at least the latest 2.x version and potentially 3.x. We would also like to migrate this from the current Centos VM to an Ubuntu EC2 instance
You have choices. Basically, there are Debian/Ubuntu packages for both Mailman 2.1 and Mailman 3, but I don't necessarily recommend them. I prefer installing Mailman 2.1 from source or, for Ubuntu, maybe from Jim Popovitch's PPA https://launchpad.net/~mailman-administrivia/+archive/ubuntu/ppa.
Mailman 3 is more complex, but there is installation info at https://wiki.list.org/x/17891998, https://wiki.list.org/x/17892066 and https://docs.google.com/document/d/1xIcSsoNFp2nHi7r4eQys00s9a0k2sHhu1V5Plant....
Knowing very little about the structure etc of the data etc, what would be the best way to go about this?
If you have created a working MM 2.1 installation, see https://wiki.list.org/x/4030682 for info on moving lists.
For MM 3 there are tools, namely mailman import21
and
hyperkitty_import
for importing Mailman 2.1 lists and archives.
