4.18. How do I backup my lists and their configurations/membership rosters?
See also FAQ 4.6 at 4.06 How can I backup my Mailman lists-membership-etc on a regular basis?
You can use the following scripts in a cronjob:
#!/bin/bash
#set -x
# Sends a file to an email address as a MIME attachment.
# Syntax: mimemail <subject> <file> <address>
# Note: Requires MH or nmh to be installed (uses MHN)
subject=$1
file=$2
addr=$3
echo "To: ${addr}
From: nobody
Subject: ${subject}
#application/octet-stream [${subject}] ${file}
" | /usr/bin/mh/mhbuild - > /tmp/mimemail.tmp.${$}
/usr/lib/mh/post -verbose -watch /tmp/mimemail.tmp.${$}
rm /tmp/mimemail.tmp.${$} #!/bin/bash
#Put in a cronjob to archive your lists and email them to you
#set -x
datestr=`date +%Y%m%d`
host=`hostname -f`
file=mailman.lists.${datestr}.tar.gz
filepath=~/backups/${file}
sendto="root"
cd /var/lib/mailman
tar zcf ${filepath} lists
cd ~/backups
~/bin/mimemail ${file} ${filepath} ${sendto}The result is a tarball emailed to you by the cronjob which contains the entire lists directory hierarchy of your Mailman installation.
