    I would like to trigger the CSV export via a shell script. Is there an option beside pulling the data from the database via mysqldump?

    The plugin doesn’t have a simple script execution that would export a CSV, which is what you would need to do something like this.

    Note that if you export raw data, you may not be able to re-import it using the web interface, the data as stored in a normal Participants Database CSV is different than the raw data stored in the database.

    I would not re-import the data. The idea was to import the data to a mailman mailing list. Of course I would have to convert the CSV data into a format that mailman understands. But at the moment I am going to use a newsletter plugin like MailPoet.

    Ok, well that will work fine, email addresses are stored as simple strings, but you will need to export it directly from the database, and that is the most efficient way to do it anyway.
