Post.Office stores the subscriber list in the database, but it can be 
accessed via the command line utilities.  The command line utilities 
are run from the command line (terminal window) from the 
/usr/local/post.office/cmdutils directory.  The best way to run the 
utilities is to go to that directory as root, create a test 
subdirectory (mkdir test), change the file permissions on the test 
directory to "777" with the command:
chmod 777 test

Change to that directory with the command:
cd test

and then run the commands.  Then when you're done, simply remove the 
test directory.
cd ..
rmdir test

You can get the full documentation on the command line utilities by 
logging into Post.Office as the Postmaster through the web browser, 
clicking on the "Help" button and then clicking on the Administration 
Guide link.  Section 11.4 tells you all about the command line 
utilities for the mailing list.
