Before installing the mailman package on the new lenny box I've copied the /var/lib/mailman/ directory from the old server (mailman 2.1.5) to the new one. After that I've started an "aptitude install mailman" to install mailman 2.1.11 on the lenny maschine. The installation didn't show any errors and I can access all lists through the webinterface. Is that the right way to upgrade or did I forget some migration stuff?

That should work. It's more or less equivalent to an upgrade in place, except you may have lost your mm_cfg.py depending on where things are (i.e. is it in /var/lib/mailman or somewhere else?).
