Hi there, I'm working on a project to improve a client's mailing list archives.
We're sick of the usual suspects (pipermail, mhonarc, lurker, etc.), and want to get a level of abstraction (e.g. IMAP) between display and storage. My current idea is to put all archived messages in a dbmail imap server, and allow anyone to access them using a reader of their choice. However, a web-based reader is also a requirement. The only thing I've found to read an imap archive via http (short of a full-blown webmail implementation) is webmlist (a cyrus project). Webmlist only supports "anonymous" imap or GSSAPI auth. I've read the wiki page about shared "public" and "user" folders, but this appears to assume that anyone access the imap store will have a legit account w/ password. Does dbmail explicitly support "anonymous" imap? I've tried just creating an "anonymous" user with a blank password, but this still requires an auth sequence to go anywhere. Any thoughts on how to make this work? Know of any alternatives to webmlist? Got any other novel list archival solutions? Please let me know! Thanks! -C- _______________________________________________ DBmail mailing list [email protected] https://mailman.fastxs.nl/mailman/listinfo/dbmail
