I have our order page setup so that a customer can choose to subscribe to our newsletter right from our order form. If they are a new customer, mailman sends them a confirmation message requesting that the customer reply to the message to confirm their subscription to our newsletter. That's fine.
However, I want mailman to stop sending an e-mail that says "You are already subscribed to the newsletter". Basically, the script that runs on our order form sends a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with subscribe newsletter as the subject. Is there a way for me to setup mailman so that if [EMAIL PROTECTED] gets a message from a subscriber to subscribe again to the newsletter, the mailman server doesn't send any message? NOTE: I know I asked a similar question earlier in the list, but I would think there is an easier way to implement this task.
