There is only one mailing list, this one.

bbhostshow will dump the bb-hosts file.  You can use perl or shell to parse 
the lines you need.  I prefer perl to parse text.  Somethine like:

./bbhostshow | perl -e 'while (<STDIN>) { if ( $_ =~ /blade:(.+) / ) { 
print "BLADE: $1\n\n" ; } } '

I love perl :)
