Howto: mailman subscriber list export
July 9th, 2007I have scoured the web for an answer. Alas I have found it, but I have lost the URL
Luckily I am able to pick it from the history, if have mailman installed uner /usr/local/mailman, yours might differ.
There you’ll find all the files relating to mailman, the one of importance here is “list_members” which can be found under the bin directory.
eg: /usr/local/mailman/bin/list_members
That is the file that will export the list of members from mailman. To get the list run, ‘/usr/local/mailman/lists’
this will give a list of mailman lists currently on the system.
Then all you need is to run the following command,
‘/usr/local/mailman/bin/list_members listname > “textfile” ‘
make the textfile of your choice, that should print it all into a text file for you.
