I'm not sure what you really want to do.

If you just want to move the list from one domain to another, assuming this is standard Mailman and not something like cPanel with 'true virtual domains', just run fix_url on the list to change the domain, and depending on how your MTA handles virtual domains, you may need to change something there too.

To actually backup and restore settings, use 'bin/config_list -o <file> <listname>' to write the configuration to <file> and then 'bin/config_list -i <file> <otherlist> to apply them to another list, but you may want to remove some of the settings (e.g. real_name) from <file> before applying it to <otherlist>.
