So does the "lists" sub-directory contain data for each individual list including rosters and digests?

In the event of the corruption of an individual list or loss of the entire Mailman server, are there any tips for recovery for either individual lists or for restoration the entire mailman application from a tape backup? Are there any specific directories or files that need to be restore to recover an individual list from backup?
for backing up lists: /usr/local/mailman/lists for the whole installation: /usr/local/mailman assuming it's installed to the standard path. It's really easy!

you mean archives? They are in the archives directory. Just have a look at your mailman directory. It's all quite clean and neatly arranged and should be self-explaining. As for the members of the list, it looks like they are in the lists directory as well. Probably in the config.pck. When I last cloned a mailing list by copying the directory I got all the members with it, so they must be there as well.
