I'm interested in what may be a slightly different question: Is there any official way of maintaining a master list, perhaps in XML, so the new user is asked to give some information, eg full name, which is then kept (somewhere) with the email address? -- Timothy Murphy e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] tel: 086-233 6090 s-mail: School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin 2, Ireland -- Mailman-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py
[Mailman-Users] MySQL database?
I've just installed Mailman and am quite please at how easy it was to get it up and running. I now have two issues that I cannot seem to find documentation on: 1) running Mailman for Virtual Hosts and 2) using MySQL or data from MySQL to include in the mail list. With a bit of time I can probably figure out the former issue. The latter issue seems a bit more tricky for a variety of reasons. In short, I have other functionality (CGI/mod_perl scripts) running for virtual web hosts that allow users to input email address and thus be attached to a mailing list. I'd like to either a) use MySLQ as the database for Mailman or b) pull those addresses from MySQL and include them in the Mailman database for the mail list. Both ideas have obvious caveats and pitfalls (how to sync an un-subscribe request with MySQL if I use the original Mailman database...). Any ideas or leads are much appreciated. -- -Doug -- Mailman-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py
