How many lists? How big are the archives?
Looking at https://lists.mailman3.org/archives/list/mailman-users@mailman3.org/thread/M..., it seems like it's not a trivial exercise.
However, I am wondering about the consequences of:
- dumping the DBs and doing 's/DOMAIN1/DOMAIN2/g' in the dumps, then re-importing
- editing settings.py and webserver config to reflect the DOMAIN2
- reconfiguring your MTA to handle list mails using the DOMAIN2
I am imagining a virtualenv type of installation.
The archives are in the database so nothing to worry about, Now that I think about this again, after dumping and importing the database as shown above, you need to rerun the 'mailman-web migrate` once again to import any DB schema changes between the versions. Actually, just run all the options from https://docs.mailman3.org/en/latest/install/virtualenv.html#run-database-mig... .
