yes true, i thought of that. but then i didn't want to spend to much time in learning how to do such a handler in a "clean" way. it is quite important to me that code and configuration are kept separately. i guess this is possible (but i haven't dived too deep into this) as far as i could overlook the custom handler thing, it also means that i would have to add such handler for each mailing list (e.g. copy the code snippet to each list i would want to enable my feature). so it was all too much of a hazzle... anyhow, i have set up a small HOW-TO about my solution (using exim&procmail) at http://iem.at/Members/zmoelnig/mailmanprocmail feel free, if you want to put it into a more "official" place. mfg.asd.r IOhannes ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org Security Policy: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq01.027.htp
