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.
