* Login to mailman user.

* Create the list:


  sudo newlist --urlhost=lists.sugarlabs.org --emailhost=lists.sugarlabs.org LISTNAME
  python3 create-list.py --list LISTNAME
 
 
Mailman3 has separate parts and the core communicates with a [https://docs.mailman3.org/projects/mailman/en/latest/src/mailman/rest/docs/rest.html REST API],
the script is aimed to make it easier to create a list, and can be viewed
to see how to authenticate to the API.

=== Change virtual host of a list ===
withlist -l -r fix_url bolivia -u lists2.ole.org
=== Change a parameter on all lists ===
echo "nondigestable = True" >bar
for l in `list_lists -b`; do config_list -i bar -v $l ; done
rm bar
=== Disabling digests for all users ===
Create a nodigests.py with this content:
from Mailman import mm_cfg
def nodigests(m):
    for addr in m.getMembers():
        if m.getMemberOption(addr, mm_cfg.Digests) == True:
            print "turning off digests for " + addr
            m.setMemberOption(addr, mm_cfg.Digests, 0)
    m.Save()
    m.Unlock()
Then, execute:
withlist -l -r nodigests -a
=== Migrating lists from one host to another ===
To migrate lists from solarsail to sunjammer, I did the following:
* Lower TTL for lists.sugarlabs.org to 30 minutes
* Copy over config before cut-off:
  ssh solarsail
  cd /var/lib/mailman/lists/
  rsync -aP aslo bugs colombia community-news dextrose fourthgrademath gsoc iaep italia marketing slobs soas somosazucar sugar-desarrollo sugar-devel sugar-reports  systems systems-logs root@sunjammer:/var/lib/mailman/lists/
  cd /var/lib/mailman/archives/private
  rsync -aP aslo* bugs* colombia* community-news* dextrose* fourthgrademath* gsoc* iaep* italia* marketing* slobs* soas* somosazucar* sugar-desarrollo* sugar-devel* sugar-reports* systems* systems-logs* root@sunjammer:/var/lib/mailman/archives/private/
* Copy over the lists.sugarlabs.org bits from the Postfix configuration (<code>/etc/postfix/main.cf</code> and <code>/etc/postfix/transport</code>)
* Test admin pages and archives on the new site (hint: set the new IP for lists.sugarlabs.org in /etc/hosts)
* [[Sysadmin/Announcing_downtime|Announce downtime]] on all affected lists
* Stop mailman on solarsail
* Switch over DNS records (with default TTL values)


* Remove mailman transport map from solarail, leaving the relay, so that anything@lists.sugarlabs.org gets sent to sunjammer


* Restart mailman on solarsail
