The short answer is "no". The databases are fairly well separated:
this is considered a Good Thing. What you want to use is schemas,
which are now available in version 7.3. This would be a great reason
to upgrade to 7.3.2 if you are not there already.

You also may want to look at "dblink" in the contrib directory,
which is probably the closest to what you want without using schemas.

TIP 2: you can get off all lists at once with the unregister command
(send "unregister YourEmailAddressHere" to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx)
