You might also want to search the documentation and the archives of this list and the mailman-developers list for information on the MemberAdapter interface, which provides some facilities to interface to a separate membership database. The MemberAdapter provided by Mailman 2.1 is evidently not very successful (I haven't tried it myself, but "surely there's a better way than MemberAdapter?" is a FAQ), but you may be able to make it serve your purposes. Better integration of 3rd-party databases is planned for Mailman 3, but Mailman 3 is presently only a proof-of-concept implementation, and there is no schedule for delivery of a public release yet. AFAIK Mailman 2.2 is not expected to get major improvements in this area, but Tokio Kikuchi the authoritative source on that (IIRC); if a brief look at Mailman 2.1 MemberAdapter seems unsatisfactory, you could ask (on this list would be best, I think) about Mailman 2.2. -- School of Systems and Information Engineering http://turnbull.sk.tsukuba.ac.jp University of Tsukuba Tennodai 1-1-1 Tsukuba 305-8573 JAPAN Ask not how you can "do" free software business; ask what your business can "do for" free software. ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org Security Policy: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq01.027.htp
