OK. That makes sense.


BTW, just for curiousity, I actually tried a partial test on the
withlist suggestion I posted, and I found problems. In case anyone
finds this in the archives and wants to try it, here's a script that
will be a little closer to working.

------------------------------------------------------------
from Mailman import mm_cfg
from Mailman.OldStyleMemberships import OldStyleMemberships

def move_members(mlist):
    OSM = OldStyleMemberships(mlist)
    if not mlist.Locked():
        mlist.Lock()
    for member in OSM.getMembers():
        if mlist.isMember(member):
            continue
        cpmember = OSM.getMemberCPAddress(member)
        digest = OSM.getMemberOption(member, mm_cfg.Digests)
        password = OSM.getMemberPassword(member)
        language = OSM.getMemberLanguage(member)
        realname = OSM.getMemberName(member)
        mlist.addNewMember(cpmember, digest=digest, password=password,
                           language=language, realname=realname)
        mlist.setDeliveryStatus(member,
                                OSM.getDeliveryStatus(member))
        for flag in (mm_cfg.DontReceiveOwnPosts,
                     mm_cfg.AcknowledgePosts,
                     mm_cfg.DisableMime,
                     mm_cfg.ConcealSubscription,
                     mm_cfg.SuppressPasswordReminder,
                     mm_cfg.ReceiveNonmatchingTopics,
                     mm_cfg.Moderate,
                     mm_cfg.DontReceiveDuplicates,
                    ):
            mlist.setMemberOption(member, flag,
                            OSM.getMemberOption(member, flag))
        mlist.setMemberTopics(member,
                              OSM.getMemberTopics(member))
        OSM.removeMember(member)
    mlist.Save()
    mlist.Unlock()
