Have successfully gone through qmailrocks installation. Would like to
setup ezmlm so that it is used as strictly a announcement list to send out
newsletters to subscribed users. The mailing list is also private meaning
only the administrator can subscribe/unsubscribe users. To initiate the
newsletter would like to execute a PHP page that uses the mail() command
to send out the newsletter. Want the post from the postmaster to be
automatically accepted and not have to be confirmed.
Can the announcement list be setup through Qmailadmin web interface or must this be done through the command line and how does one do this?
You won't be able to accomplish auto-approval through the QmailAdmin interface. You can set everything else up though, and have your PHP page call ezmlm-gate (or perhaps a suid wrapper that calls ezmlm-gate) to send the message to the list.
Several techniques for creating an announcement list show editting the dir/Editor file and adding a single line at the top of the file to test for who the e-mail came from or for a secret value in the header.
The problem with those methods is that QmailAdmin only considers a .qmail-alias file to be a list if the first line contains ezmlm-reject.
