There are some articles on this in the FAQ, but they are unduly complicated. It is probably sufficient to backup Mailman's lists/ and archives/private/ directories. This won't get held messages waiting moderator approval or messages in Mailman's processing queues, but it will get the list data and membership and archives. If you want held messages, you can add Mailman's data/ directory, and if you want the queues, add qfiles/. If all you want are list settings and membership, lists/*/config.pck* will do it, and all the info needed to rebuild archives is in archives/private/*.mbox/ -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
