Title: How do I change the name of my Mailman list?

Question: I am the owner of a Mailman list at the UW.  Can I change the
name of my list?  If so, how?

Answer:

Mailman list names can't be changed.  A new list has to be created and the
old one deleted.  You'll have to take care of details like transferring
the subscribers file and informing anyone who used the old name of the
list.

To create a new list, fill out the Mailman list request form at

	http://www.washington.edu/computing/forms/mailman/

Your new list will be created within two business days. When the new list
is up and running, request that your old list be deleted by filling out
the form at

	http://www.washington.edu/computing/mailman/delete.php

or by sending email to

        help@u.washington.edu
