Here's the basics of what I'm trying to set up: The Web UI is not available. CLI tools are being used for configuration and ongoing maintenance functions. The server instance is ephemeral, but has persistent storage for postfix / mailman configuration. There are a series of notification lists list-0...@example.com, list-0...@example.com, etc. Users can subscribe / unsubscribe via email. A list-...@example.com list can be used to send posts to all lists (this is rare). A sitead...@example.com email address is the only sender allowed to post to any list. A list-ad...@example.com list is defined. This list should be copied on all posts that are sent to any of the notification lists. The admin list membership is maintained via CLI tools by list admins
Below are a couple of ideas I've played around with, but haven't gotten a good solution. Suggestions would be welcome. I've had a little experience with the CLI tools, but I'm not having luck with trying to add non-members. Idea 1 Have list-...@example.com be an umbrella list with all notifications lists as members. list-ad...@example.com is added to all lists as a member sitead...@example.com is added to all notification lists as a member with moderation_action = Action.defer to allow sending posts. ues-...@example.com is added to all notification lists as a member with moderation_action = Action.defer to allow "nested" sending to members of the list-all list. There seem to be issues with having the senders as members of the list. Having them as non-members might be a solution, but I haven't yet figured out how to add non-members via CLI. Idea 2 Use cron with CLI tools to extract all notification list members and update (mailman syncmembers) the list-all membership. Use script to add all list-admin users to each notification list. Update all notification lists when the list-admin membership changes. This is somewhat problematic since individuals could be direct members of notification lists and removal from list-admin would remove the direct membership. sitead...@example.com is added to all lists as a member with moderation_action = Action.defer to allow sending posts. ________________________________ The contents of this e-mail, including attachments, are intended for use by the named addressee only and may contain information that is confidential or private according to applicable law.
