This actually applies quite precisely to me.

Our domain also changed but I didn't make any changes to the list (yet)
because my old address was still forwarding to the new one.  The only quirk
was when I posted (not often) I got a message to the effect that it had been
submitted for consideration and later that it had been posted.  I note that
that issue has also been addressed now.

So I followed the instructions for changing it worked kinda sorta.

When you do make the change it sends an email to the new address to confirm
it which is to be expected.

Within that email you have two choices, either click the link to confirm it
or do an 'ok' reply.

Feeling lazy, I tried the link route, which took me to me back to a webpage
and I thought I was done.  After the third go round (thick today I guess) I
read the message on the webpage the links were taking me to.  It actually
said it was sending an email to be confirmed, so apparently clicking the
link was not quite working to confirm my change.

Doing an actual reply to the latest email appeared to do the trick as I then
got another email confirming that my address had been changed as requested.

After the first go round and I thought I was done, I also changed my
password using my new address which appeared to work fine.  This timing may
have been part of my problem.

All is well now, just passing on my experience.

I assume you are talking about the web interface login and password, not
your list subscription address (which can be changed, just pull up your old
one and type in your new address).

Your web interface credentials are stored in the list's SIGNUP.FILE and
apply to all lists you are subscribed to on the same Listserv host.

There isn't a nice, neat, obvious way to clear this up in the web interface,
I admit.

If the old address is no longer subscribed to any lists, it will eventually
be removed by Listserv during it's daily maintenance, depending on how
"stale" the signup file has become (not unlike defragmenting a disk).

If you want to hurry the process, follow this link (you'll have to login
under your old email address unless you still have the login cookie saved on
your PC):
