There is definitely a dearth of good command-line site/list admin
tools available in the current version of Mailman. There are some
basic tools that operate at a very low level, but not really much
that let you quickly plow through a large list.
At least, not without requiring a web browser and some scripts to
cut down the standard Mailman web interface to something that is more
manageable. But then those tools have the same dependency on the web
server as the regular GUI admin tools, and don't really help when the
system is so bogged down that the web server is more of a hindrance
than a help.
Please, do feel free to contribute any command-line tools that
you may develop.
