New page

Script to add emails to mailing lists in mailman. Otherwise you would have to go through the web form, which could be a pain.

<pre>
#!/usr/bin/perl

use strict;

my $mailman = "/usr/lib/mailman/bin";
my $listlists = "$mailman/list_lists";
my $add_members = "$mailman/add_members";

my $email = $ARGV[0];
my $list = $ARGV[1];
if (!$email) {
print "Usage: addemail.pl <email address> <list name>\n";
exit;
}

if (!$list) {
print "No list name was given. The following lists are available:\n";
system("$listlists");
exit;
}

system("echo $email > /tmp/email.txt");
system("$add_members -r /tmp/email.txt $list");
system("rm /tmp/email.txt");
</pre>
