Editing subscribing addresses
by Daniel Staal 03 Aug '02

I'm trying to set up a web presence for a client, and just tried setting up an HTML form using post to subscribe people to a Smartlist mailing list. (I didn't see it mentioned as working, but I thought I'd try. It does get emailed.) It almost worked perfectly: it uses the address posted in the form, but the form puts a '=' in front of the address. Can anyone point me to a good way to strip that out? (Sorry, don't know shell code yet.) Daniel T. Staal p.s. Here's a copy of what gets sent to Smartlist, in case you need it: Return-Path: <countrynews-request(a)strictly-country.com> Delivered-To: daniel(a)gandolf.magehandbook.net Received: by gandolf.magehandbook.net (Postfix, from userid 1004) id DDEC616D; Wed, 31 Jul 2002 14:26:24 -0500 (CDT) X-From_:DStaal@usa.net Wed Jul 31 14:26:18 2002 Delivered-To: countrynews-request(a)gandolf.magehandbook.net Received: from [192.168.1.10] (mac.magehandbook.net [192.168.1.10]) by gandolf.magehandbook.net (Postfix) with ESMTP id AAFFD161 for <countrynews-request(a)strictly-country.com>; Wed, 31 Jul 2002 14:26:10 -0500 (CDT) To: countrynews-request(a)strictly-country.com subject:subscribe X-Mailer: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.15; Mac_PowerPC) MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-type: text/plain Message-Id: <20020731192611.AAFFD161(a)gandolf.magehandbook.net> Old-Date: Wed, 31 Jul 2002 14:26:11 -0500 (CDT) From: DStaal(a)usa.net X-Diagnostic: Sent confirmation instructions X-Envelope-To: countrynews-request Date: Wed, 31 Jul 2002 14:26:24 -0500 (CDT) E-mail Address:=DStaal@usa.net

> > ~$ tr -d "=" <dist>dist.fixed; mv dist dist.old; mv dist.fixed dist This works on the whole file. On the other hand, if you just want to use a filter on a line *before* writing it to the dist file, use ... | sed 's/=/' | ... For instance, if the address sits in a variable, say, $email, and you want to append it to the dist file, echo $email | sed 's/=//' >> dist Exactly where you want to put it, should be pretty clear, I guess. - M

(The address doesn't make it to the dist file.) Hmm, if I can just figure out where to put that in the procmail scripts it should still work. (With appropriate io redirection.)

I just went back and checked the Manual, and it says that the email address must be the first thing on the line. The other form I mentioned, though -- user(a)domain.com (real name) -- is explicitly permitted. Sorry for the misinformation. (I should've checked before speaking!) -cary
