How can I tell whether a list is a Mailman or Moira list?
To determine if a list is a moira list or a mailman list, run this
command at the athena% prompt:
joeuser@athena:~$ blanche -i listname
Note: Be sure to fill in the correct information for listname.
replacing "listname" with the name of your list. If it is a mailman
list, you will see this line in the output:
listname is a Mailman list on server PCH.MIT.EDU
If you do not see that line, it is not a Mailman list.
You may encounter some errors doing this. If you receive this error:
/usr/athena/bin/blanche: Insufficient permission to perform requested database access while getting members of list
that means that the list is configured to be hidden.
If you receive this error:
/usr/athena/bin/blanche: No records in database match query...
that means the list does not exist, and there is likely a typo in your list name.
