Your current host should be able to send you the config.db file for each of your lists. Using that you can simply install the same version of mailman, create the same listnames, then copy in the config.db files. After which you will need to use the with-list command to modify the hostnames in the config.db files
You might also want the mbox files from your current host so that you can regenerate the archives of the list (assuming you had archives...)
~mailman/lists/<listnamd>/config.db ~mailman/archives/private/<listname.mbox>/<listname.mbox

I use Mailman as part of a website hosting package to host a discussion list with 750 active subscribers, with up to 30 messages a day. My host recently told me that the list is generating too much traffic. So I need to move the list
I have another host which uses EZMLM. They've told me that this level of traffic would be no problem to them
However, to move to another host I need to subscribe the current subscribers at the new host.
Question 1 - Is there any way I can get the list of subscribers, preferably in a readable format, preferably with their settings (nomail, digest, etc). Please note that I don't have access to the server, however I can ask my host to do do it for me (provided I can give them simple instructions which don't take too long to do and won't affect the other websites or lists)
Question 2 - Alternatively, does anyone know of a hosting package (I am not ready for a dedicated server yet, alas) which includes Mailman which will allow this sort of volume
Many thanks,
Coen
