[Mailman-Users] export/import of lists

[Eduardo Jaime Quiros Batres]

Searching the internet I found several references to just backup (tar or
something similar) my lists and restore them to another place and after
that just changing apache for the new virtual host, DNS, and aliases

but I'm finding some things strange, it seems the filenames are rather
diferent:

OLD server:

version: mailman-2.0.13-1U80_1cl

list of files in /usr/lib/mailman/lists/test:
-rw-rw-r-- 1 root     mailman  1706 Dez 14  2001 admindbpreamble.html
-rw-rw---- 1 mailman  mailman  2900 Mai 29 17:00 config.db
-rw-rw---- 1 mailman  mailman  2900 Mai 29 12:00 config.db.last
-rw-rw-r-- 1 root     mailman   189 Dez 14  2001 handle_opts.html
-rw-rw-r-- 1 root     mailman  1026 Dez 14  2001 headfoot.html
-rw-rw-r-- 1 root     mailman  3136 Dez 14  2001 listinfo.html
-rw-rw-r-- 1 root     mailman  4106 Dez 14  2001 options.html
-rw-rw-r-- 1 mailman  mailman     2 Mai 29 17:00 request.db
-rw-rw-r-- 1 root     mailman  1169 Dez 14  2001 roster.html
-rw-rw-r-- 1 root     mailman   198 Dez 14  2001 subscribe.html

NEW server:

version: mailman-2.1.4-2mdk

lists of files in  /var/lib/mailman/lists/mailman:
-rw-rw----  1 mail mail 3415 Mai 29 19:03 config.pck
-rw-rw----  1 mail mail 3415 Mai 29 18:50 config.pck.last

---------------
permissions/owner can be changed easelly but the files are so different!

Does anyone have a script to:
1) export users, import in a new list
2) save passwords of each list and recover (altough the size os the
crypt password if rather diferent I don't want to contact each list
owner
3) export/import history
4) export/import configuration of the list (owner, public/private etc)

Thanks
