If anything, perhaps the list should be deprecated or ignored until the Xen traffic on @fedora-virt becomes onerous (or not). Renaming a list is annoying, but mechanically not too hard. Here are my notes from the last time I successfully did it to a private list. I swapped in the fedora names for my names. I use postfix. cd /var/lib/mailman/lists mv fedora-xen fedora-virt cd /var/lib/mailman/archives/private mv fedora-xen fedora-virt mv fedora-xen.mbox fedora-virt.mbox mv fedora-virt.mbox/fedora-xen.mbox fedora-virt.mbox/fedora-virt.mbox /usr/lib/mailman/bin/arch fedora-virt cd /etc/mailman perl -pi -e 's/fedora-xen/fedora-virt/g' virtual-mailman postmap virtual-mailman perl -pi -e 's/fedora-xen/fedora-virt/g' aliases postalias aliases Login to http://hostname/mailman/admin/fedora-virt and change all occurrences of fedora-xen to fedora-virt. Changes made under General Options. http://www.gnu.org/software/mailman/faq.html -- Fedora-xen mailing list Fedora-xen@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-xen
