mlmmj-sub(1) General Commands Manual mlmmj-sub(1) NAME mlmmj-sub -- subscribe address to a mailinglist run by mlmmj SYNOPSIS mlmmj-sub -L /path/to/list [-a john@doe.org | -m str] [-cCdnfhqrRsUV] DESCRIPTION -a email Email address to subscribe -c Send welcome mail (unless requesting confirmation) -C Request mail confirmation (unless switching versions) -d Subscribe to digest version of the list -f Force subscription (do not moderate) -h Print help -L path Full path to list directory -m str Moderation string -n Subscribe to nomail version of the list -q Be quiet (don't notify owner about the subscription) -r Behave as if request arrived via email (internal use) -R Behave as if confirmation arrived via email (internal use) -s Don't send a mail to the subscriber if already subscribed -U Don't switch to the user id of the listdir owner -V Print version This utility is used to subscribe people to the specified mailinglist. It will write the email address in a file with the name of the begin- ning letter of the email address getting subscribed in the <listdir>/subscribers.d/ directory. The digest version of the list is a list version where people receive postings to the list periodically (e.g. once a day) or when a large number of posts have accumulated. Digest subscribers are in the <listdir>/digesters.d/ directory. The nomail version of the list is a list version where people are sub- scribed like usual, but they won't receive any postings to the list. This is useful for people who read the mailinglist through a news gate- way, but want to be able to post to the list. Nomail subscribers are in the <listdir>/nomailsubs.d/ directory. Unless the -U switch is used it will switch its user id to the user id owning the list directory. This is done to make sure that new files created are having correct permissions. If the given address is already subscribed to the list, but to a dif- ferent version, the subscription is switched to that version, and con- firmation and moderation are bypassed. If the address is already sub- scribed to the version requested, a mail is sent to the subscriber, un- less the -s switch is used. Subscription may be moderated (if <listdir>/control/submod exists) un- less the -f switch is given. When a subscription is permitted by a gatekeeper, welcome messages are sent to the subscriber as usual, re- gardless of options given now. To ensure subscription is silent from the point of view of the sub- scriber, use -f, but neither -c nor -C. To inhibit notification of the owner, use -q. Use of -s is recommended to ensure you don't spam al- ready-subscribed addresses by accident.
