Running smartlist without root access
Well I'm here again asking this same question..... I have installed Smartlist 3.15 on a Linux system where I have a shell login account. I also have two domains hosted on the system and *all* mail to either of these domains is delivered to me (as I'm the postmaster, among other things). My *actual* mail address there is chris@isbd.co.uk, I'd like to set up a Smartlist list with the name uk-riders@isbd.co.uk, presumably with the request address being uk-riders-request@isbd.co.uk. Presumably I need to do the following:- Add a .forward file so that mail is delivered using procmail, something like "|exec /home/d/cgreen/slist/.bin/procmail" Add some rules to the .procmailrc file so that mail for uk-riders@isbd.co.uk and uk-riders-request@isbd.co.uk is delivered to flist. What would be the exact syntax of these two rules? Is that all I need do (apart from the basic bits and pieces in the Smartlist configuration scripts)? -- Chris Green (chris@areti.co.uk) Home: chris@isbd.demon.co.uk Work: cgreen@bcs.org.uk WWW: http://www.isbd.co.uk/

:0 *^TOttl-request@(ms\.)?chinmin\.edu\.tw | /usr/home/ttl/.bin/flist ttl-request Something like the above works for me, but qmail is the MTA here and I've forgotten what this means if you're using sendmail. YOu need to check the path of course. The message you get back when you create a list about putting something in aliases to pipe mail to flist is very similar to the above line, but I think it has an exec in there somewhere, which doesn't seem to be necessary in .procmailrc -- Greg Matheson The funniest practical jokes are Chinmin College, those you play unsuspectingly on Taiwan yourself.
