Okay,
I wanna move about 50 ezmlm lists to a diferent domain.

Now i suspect that copying directories and files will do the trick but
im not shure. Also, i wonder what ezmlm-make parameters should i use.
Im going through the source of qmailadmin right now and im shure to
find
out exactly how those lists get made by it, but im also shure you guys
can come up with a better way to go about it.
QmailAdmin calls ezmlm-make. The config file in the list's directory
should tell you everything you need to know in regards to creating the
list.
You should be able to use the config file to generate a call to
ezmlm-make to create your new list, and then pipe the output of
ezmlm-list (for the old list) to ezmlm-sub (for the new list) to
transfer the subscribers, moderators (if appropriate) and digest
subscribers (if appropriate) to the new list.
I suspect you could simply copy the subscribers, mod/subscribers and
digest/subscribers (I'm guessing on that digest path) from the old
directory to the new one.
ezmlm-make is probably a better solution than just copying the list's
confi directory and recreating the .qmail-list-whatever symlinks, as
you'll have to edit the configuration files to use the new list's
pathname, and change the old domain to the new domain in files like
inhost.
