NAME

       clone_member - Clone a Mailman mailing list subscriber address

SYNOPSIS

       clone_member [options] fromoldaddr tonewaddr

DESCRIPTION

       Cloning a member address means that a new member will be added who has all the same options and passwords
       as  the  original member address.  Note that this operation is fairly trusting of the user who runs it --
       it does no verification to the new address, it does not send out a welcome message, etc.

       The existing member's subscription is usually not modified in any way.  If you want  to  remove  the  old
       address, use the -r flag.  If you also want to change any list admin addresses, use the -a flag.

OPTIONS

       -l listname, --listname=listname
              Check  and  modify  only  the named mailing lists.  If -l is not given, then all mailing lists are
              scanned from the address.  Multiple -l options can be supplied.

       -r, --remove
              Remove the old address from the mailing list after it's been cloned.

       -a, --admin
              Scan the list admin addresses for the old address, and clone or change them too.

       -q, --quiet
              Do the modifications quietly.

       -n, --nomodify
              Print what would be done, but don't actually do it.  Inhibits the 0

       fromoldaddr (`from old address') is the old address of the user.  tonewaddr (`to new address') is the new
       address of the user.
