I am wondering if there is anyway, when a new subscriber joins my list, if I can have their email address added to my database. I use MySql. Is there some little function I can add to my rc.custom script or one of the other scripts? Love, Light, & Blessings with Joy, Randall

Hmm... Interesting question. I'm certain this is possible. You'll need to write a small shell script or similar thing to run to do the actual addition and deletions, I suspect. Perhaps you can get away with calling some form of 'mysql -e "insert into subscribers blah blah', or maybe you'll have to actually write a shell script... I *suspect* that your best bet may be a hack in SmartList's subscribe and unsubscribe scripts, to call your add and delete record script... Maybe add a call at the bottom of each of those files... Other listers may have better ideas... Let me know what you come up with.

Hmm... Another grep in the bin directory suggests to me that a complete solution would need hooks in procbounce and removelist as well as subscribe and unsubscribe... And you'll want to insert the calls in such a way that it'll only run on succesful operations... Still quite doable. Sorry for the excess list traffic...

All -- Just a quick note to let you know that the SmartList FAQ is updated based on recent questions. Additionally, I've posted a copy of the latest SmartList manual (1.57 2000/01/29, from SL 3.15), and created linkage from the FAQ citations and the Manual TOC to the relevant Manual entry. You may notice the logo-like decoration on the FAQ page. This is NOT an official logo of SmartList; it hasn't been blessed in any way; it's just something I cooked up to "beautify" the page. http://www.hartzler.net/smartlist/ Regards, Pete.
