1) export the old list config: ./bin/config_list -o /tmp/old.cfg oldlist
  and edit the config file to remove anything that shouldn't carry over.
2) import the config to clone: ./bin/config_list -i /tmp/old.cfg newlist
3) sync lists: ./bin/list_members oldlist | ./bin/sync_members -f - newlist

That should do it...
