Command: update

  Format: update

Performs an update of the list that is passed to the mail system for
the database of the selected list.  This means that anyone that has
subscribed since the last update will be added to the mail system's
table, and anyone that has unsubscribed from the list since the last update
will be removed.

This command is only available from the shell, i.e. you must be able to log
in to the machine which hosts mailing lists and access the "listmanager"
program from the command line.

The function of this command is executed automatically by listmanager
during the end of operations from the mail interface, so there is no need
for the command to be available via mail.
