.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
.I Mlmgr
|
|
creates and updates unmoderated mailing lists.
|
|
The
|
|
.B -c
|
|
option creates mail directories for both
|
|
.I listname
|
|
and
|
|
.IB listname -owner\f1,\fP
|
|
each containing a
|
|
.B pipeto
|
|
file.
|
|
Messages mailed to
|
|
.I listname
|
|
are sent to all members of the mailing list.
|
|
Any
|
|
.B Reply-to:
|
|
and
|
|
.B Precedence:
|
|
fields are
|
|
removed from the messages and new ones are added
|
|
directing replies to
|
|
.I listname
|
|
and specifying bulk precedence. The envelope address for
|
|
error replies is set to
|
|
.BR /dev/null .
|
|
.PP
|
|
The mailing list membership is the file
|
|
.BR /mail/box/\fIlistname\fP/address-list .
|
|
This file is an add/remove log. Each line
|
|
represents a single address. Lines beginning
|
|
with a hash
|
|
.RB ( # )
|
|
are comments.
|
|
Lines beginning with an exclamation point
|
|
.RB ( ! )
|
|
are removals.
|
|
All other lines are additions.
|
|
.PP
|
|
Addition and removal entries can be appended using the
|
|
.B -a
|
|
and
|
|
.B -r
|
|
options to
|
|
.IR mlmgr .
|
|
However, they are normally appended as a consequence of
|
|
user requests.
|
|
.PP
|
|
To be added or removed from the list, a user
|
|
may send a message to
|
|
.IB listname -owner
|
|
containing a key word in
|
|
the header or body. The key words are:
|
|
.IP
|
|
subscribe - add my
|
|
.B From:
|
|
address to the list
|
|
.IP
|
|
remove - remove my
|
|
.B From:
|
|
address from the list
|
|
.IP
|
|
unsubscribe - remove my
|
|
.B From:
|
|
address from the list
|
|
.PP
|
|
Addition and removal events cause notification messages to
|
|
be sent to the added/removed address. In the case of
|
|
addition, the message describes how to be removed.
|
|
.PP
|
|

|
|
