Any Sendmail and/or listserv gurus out there? I've got some questions, hopefully you've got answers. This is to do with a CF project so it's not entirely off-topic. :)
The project is an online newsletter engine, with email broadcast capabilities to subscribers. Right now, in the prototype, I'm using CFMAIL for outgoing, and processing incoming bounces/unsubs with CFPOP, which isn't the most efficient process in the world. I want to use Sendmail for outgoing and a listserv for incoming as much as possible, for the speed/efficiency. Questions are: 1) Is there a way to drop a text file of the email contents directly into a directory on the Sendmail box, a queue folder of some sort, that Sendmail monitors and processes automatically? i.e. instead of doing a CFMAIL with the email contents, writing those contents to a text file and transferring that file onto the Sendmail box. 2) Is there a way to export, from the CF app, a list of subscribers right into a listserv mailing list, and use the listserv to process bounces/unsubscribes - and then tap into that listserv list from the CF side, and update the subscriber DB based on what the listserv has received/processed? Please reply off-list, thanks :) ______________________________________________________________________ Signup for the Fusion Authority news alert and keep up with the latest news in ColdFusion and related topics. http://www.fusionauthority.com/signup.cfm FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/cf-talk@houseoffusion.com/ Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/index.cfm?sidebar=lists
