Hi there, due to my own stupidity I lost my domain as it expired and someone else grabbed it immediately. I have one particular mailing list, that I want to recover and move it to my new domain. I only need email adresses. I already contacted my provider who hosts mailman, but with no backend access for me. They send me the zipped folder of that list, which is pretty useless. I read 3.62. How do I extract a list of my list's members (subscribers)? of the FAQ, but this only works if the domain still exists. What do I have to tell my provider to send me to get the e-mail adresses (the list still exists and is configured on their server).
Appreciate any help! Thanks, Thomas

I don't know for sure what they sent you, but if it is the contents of lists/LISTNAME, it has what you need. lists/LISTNAME/config.pck has everything Mailman knows about that list except for archives. The problem is you need a working Mailman installation to use it.
You could just run something like
strings config.pck
and edit the output of that to get email addresses.

You could ask them to send you the output from Mailman's
bin/list_members -f -p listname
