Ok, I found out why I am getting the numeric.  Not happy about that though
because it means existing addresses that folks were used to are no longer
available:

But I still have the issue that the list address is not working.  Not sure
what is going on with that.

Well, I didn't get a response but I pushed forward anyways.  I found the
cmuExport and cmuImport doesn't work out but that's fine.  I only had three
sites on the server that was using majordomo so I manually backed up those
lists and then deleted them.  I then followed all the instructions posted on
the mailman page.

I created a mailing list.  One thing is that it appends a number.  Why is
that?   When I try to email the mailing list I get a user unknown.  I try it
with the number and still get user unknown.

Any ideas?

I am hoping someone can confirm that I can/should do the following if I want
to convert an existing server that has Majordomo mailing lists on it over to
mailman:

1. Run cmuExport ­n www.sitename.com ­d www.sitename.com ­c for all sites
that have Majordomo mailing lists.
2. Delete all existing mailing lists.
3. Run the Mailman Installation instructions found at
http://www.blueonyx.it/index.php?page=mailman.
4. Run cmuImport ­n www.sitename.com ­d  www.sitename.com for all sites that
HAD Majordomo mailing lists so that it will create mailman mailing lists.
Regards,

Rashid

If I have existing majordomo lists and I do the conversion to Mailman, will
these lists migrate over or will I need to basically manually back up these
lists and manually re-setup these lists once mail man is installed?

Rashid
