The Django Admin Interface is better, but it also does not give a full picture of a member, as it does not show the lists that member is a member of. MM2 had that feature, which was very useful. When I heard of MM3 supporting ‘users’ as opposed to ’subscribers’, I was expecting an interface that was ‘user’ centered, both at the user level and at the admin level. As a site admin I don’t have a way to get a comprehensive view of a user account (attached email addresses, subscribed lists, etc.).

The point is more that the documentation at this URL:
<https://mailman.readthedocs.io/en/latest/src/mailman/model/docs/usermanager.html>
makes repeated use of the dump_list function, and while it shows you a variety of bits to import, it doesn't include the bits necessary to make use of dump_list, so if one is going off the documentation, all they get is errors.
But really, the documentation needs to be updated further to point out the the Django ADMIN INTERFACE as the best way to do user management, and not the python shell.
