[Mailman-Users] Disaster in hosting land

For sometime I've been uncomfortable not being able to conveniently
extract a list of subscribers from mailman. Recently, my hosting
service apparently moved me to a new server. They did not tell or warn
me what was happening. They apparently configured my MailMan lists
with an old backup. I just became aware that my MailMan lists were
in a mess:
1) new subscribers were missing from the list
2) people that had been un-subscribed were back on the list
3) archives are missing
4) passwords have reverted to old values
The hosting service (dzones.com) has told me NOTHING. I can't even
find out what date the current situation corresponds to.
Now, I am tasked with extracting whatever data I can and then finding a
new hosting service. I don't think I want to use MailMan again. I
have identified two hosting services that use Majordomo.
Does anyone have any advice for me? Can I manage Majordomo lists via
ftp?
