We need to clean up list subscripbers each semester when students graduate. I
am having trouble
with
remove_members -h shows that:
--file=file
-f file
Remove member addresses found in the given file. If file is
`-', read stdin.
--all
-a
Remove all members of the mailing list.
(mutually exclusive with --fromall)
--fromall
Removes the given addresses from all the lists on this system
regardless of virtual domains if you have any. This option cannot be
used -a/--all. Also, you should not specify a listname when using
this option.
But I am having trouble with
../bin/remove_members --fromall -f /tmp/class04
I found a patch by Marc Merlin back in 2001 which adds a special list name:
_alllists_
I was wondering:
1. With Mailman 2.1.5, can I run remove_members --fromall with -f (file
containing subscriber
email addresses)? -- I know we can get around using shell script to feed one
address at a time.
2. Are patches normally included into the newer version of Mailman?
Thanks.
