Hello,
I have a signup sheet that subscribes people to a Mailman list by using
PHP to call add_members (the PHP is below, FYI). My problem is that
add_members seems to ignore the email confirmation settings from the
admin interface. Even though my list is configured to send a
confirmation message, subscribers only get the "Thanks for signing up!"
email.
Does anyone know of a way to use add_members in a confirmed-opt-in
list? Thanks very much!

<?php
// The path to your add_members program here:
$ADD_MEMBERS = '/your/path/to/add_members';
// The name of your mailing list:
$LIST = 'FakeList';
// The email address from the form, run through a process
// that removes nasty scripting attacks
$adrs = escapeshellcmd($_GET['email']);
// Runs the pipeline and stores the output in an array
exec("echo $adrs | $ADD_MEMBERS -r - $LIST", $output, $return_var);
// Implodes the array into a string
$msg = implode('', $output);
// Search for 'Subscribed' in $msg. Then we know if it worked or not.
if (strpos($msg, 'Subscribed') === FALSE) {
print "Crap! Something went wrong and you were not subscribed.";
} else {
print "It worked!";
}
?>
