A question: we have a script that modifies users.lst files for various distribution lists as we gain and lose employees. It works fine, but there's a catch: this only works with lists that have been manually created through Imail Administrator, so it's no help when we add new offices or divisions. So I went ahead and created a "dummy" list to see what registry changes transpired, and here's the new stuff that came up:
=============== [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Ipswitch\IMail\Domains\mailtest.somedomain.com\ Users\_aliases] "registry_test-owner"="[EMAIL PROTECTED]" "owner-registry_test"="[EMAIL PROTECTED]" "registry_test"="| imailsrv mailtest.somedomain.com registry_test" "imailsrv"="| imailsrv mailtest.somedomain.com" [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Ipswitch\IMail\Domains\mailtest.somedomain.com\ _lists\registry_test] "ReplyToList"=dword:00000000 "EnableDigest"=dword:00000000 "EnableSubjectMods"=dword:00000000 "EnableHeader"=dword:00000000 "EnableTrailer"=dword:00000000 "DisableListCommand"=dword:00000000 "PrivateList"=dword:00000000 "EnableSubjectUnsubscribes"=dword:00000000 "UsePassword"=dword:00000000 "Limit"=dword:00000000 "Split"=dword:00000019 "Restricted"=dword:00000000 "EnableAuthPosters"=dword:00000000 "EnableHeadersTrailersForDigestPostings"=dword:00000000 "StripNonTextAttachments"=dword:00000000 "EnableDigestSeparator"=dword:00000000 "EnableDigestHeader"=dword:00000000 "EnableDigestTrailer"=dword:00000000 "Administrator"="root" "Password"="" "DigestMailbox"="" "DigestSubject"="" "Periodicity"="WEEKLY" "AMPM"="01" "Day"="21" "Hour"="02" "LastProcessingTime"="NotProcessed" "Minute"="03" "Month"="07" "OtherPeriodicity"="" "Year"="2004" =============== ...so, it's a little wordy, but on the surface it doesn't look too hard to replicate in a script. Obviously a lot of the values would be boilerplate since we're using a standard list setup. However, I'm a bit leery of playing with the Registry in general if I can avoid it. Before I get too enthusiastic with my registry editing, can anyone tell me if there's some kind of command-line-based tool to perform the same purpose? I looked at the list of helper apps but none of them sounded quite right for this task. Thanks! Guy T.
