Unlike Mailman 2.1, Mailman 3 stores all it's list specific data in a database. The database contains data for all lists, so backing up all lists would be a backup procedure for the database which depends on the database manager, i.e., sqlite, MySQL/MariaDB or PostgreSQL.
A procedure to backup/restore a single list would require a script to extract/restore the data for that list from the DB. There is an open issue for this at https://gitlab.com/mailman/postorius/-/issues/13

Hi Mark, Which database store the list data and archives. I am using Mailman3 with Hyperkitty. Does the hyperkity store the mails of the list ? I can write a python script to import the data. I am at the end of completion of a fully pyhton based modern hosting control panel ( better than cpanel ) and at the final stage of backup and restore procedure.
Thank you for your help

Mailman core's database is defined in the database section of mailman.cfg.
mailman conf -s database
The database for HyperKitty, Postorius, django_mailman3 and other Django
modules is defined in the DATABASES dictionary in Django's settings.
Normally these define the same database as the tables don't conflict.

Hello,
Wondering if there has been any update on this? I would appreciate your advice.
Thank you!
Hello,
This question was asked before, but there was no answer, and it's been over 2 years.
I'm wondering if there is a procedure to restore one mailing list in mm3?
Thank you!

Currently, this is complicated. It involves multiple database queries to get the relevant information for a single list and restore it.
I have just created https://gitlab.com/mailman/mailman/-/issues/1182 for this.
