Hi,

Also the way I understand how MTAs work is postfix or whatever you are using 
should hold the email if Mailman is offline while you are backing up?  Once 
mailman is backup postfix should deliver?



If the MDA returns a temporary failure and the message is queued for 
local delivery. That is how it should be normally set up, but there's 
all kinds of "normal" out there.

I'm assuming this is a Mailman 2.1 question since this is a Mailman 2.1
list. If in fact it is Mailman 3, please see

and following up there.

For Mailman 2.1, it should be sufficient to backup Mailman's mutable
data which is in Mailman's archives/, data/, lists/, locks/, logs/,
qfiles/ and spam/ directories although locks/ and qfiles/ are pretty
specific to the running instance and probably shouldn't be restored from
backups.

Hi

Please tell me about Mailman backup.
We want to back up our mailing list configuration data, archives, etc. without

Can you please tell us how to do this?



I'm assuming this is a Mailman 2.1 question since this is a Mailman 2.1
