LIST_MEMBERS(8) 					      System Manager's Manual						   LIST_MEMBERS(8)

NAME

       list_members - List all the members of a Mailman mailing list

SYNOPSIS

       list_members [-o file] [-r] [-d] [-p] [-h] listname

OPTIONS

       -o file, --output file
	      Write output to specified file instead of standard out.

       -r, --regular
	      Print just the regular (non-digest) members.

       -d [kind], --digest[=kind]
	      Print  just the digest members.  Optional argument can be "mime" or "plain" which prints just the digest members receiving that kind
	      of digest.

       --nomail[=why], -n [why]
	      Print the members that have delivery disabled.  Optional argument can be "byadmin", "byuser", "bybounce", or "unknown" which  prints
	      just  the users who have delivery disabled for that reason.  It can also be "enabled" which prints just those member for whom deliv-
	      ery is enabled.

       -f, --fullnames
	      Include the full names in the output.

       -p, --preserve
	      Output member addresses case preserved the way they were added to the list.  Otherwise, addresses are printed in all lowercase.

       -i, --invalid
	      Print only the addresses in the membership list that are invalid.  Ignores -r, -d, -n.

       -u, --unicode
	      Print addresses which are stored as Unicode objects instead of normal string objects.  Ignores -r, -d, -n.

       -h, --help
	      Print a small help text and exit

	      listname is the name of the mailing list to use.

NOTES

       Note that if neither -r or -d is supplied, both regular members are printed first, followed by digest members, but no indication  is  given
       as to address status.
