What kind of data? Lists of subscribers? Using the web admin interface, go to "Membership Management..." and then to "Mass Subscribe". You can select a file to upload (with one subscriber e-mail address per line) or you can cut-n-paste that kind of information. Archives are imported in 7th edition "mbox" format, as described in the FAQ Wizard. Importing anything else is much more manual in nature. So far as I know, there are no tools that have been developed for the express purpose of importing Listserv format mailing lists into Mailman. But, it shouldn't be too hard to write Python programs to do that, and the community would certainly welcome your efforts in this regard. -- Brad Knowles, <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> "Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety." -- Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790), reply of the Pennsylvania Assembly to the Governor, November 11, 1755 SAGE member since 1995.
