the plan i have been kicking around is my PHP and JBoss systems would automatically create a mailman list for every forum subject. for the users, i will create another interface where they can opt to be emailed all the discussions that happen in the forum. when they opt in, the scripts will create a user for that person in the list. The PHP interface will be set up so when someone goes into the interface to post a topic or reply, it will save it to the database and send a copy to the mailman list. that email that is sent to mailman will have hidden fields in the HTML that will be used if the person replys to the email in order to track the threading and such in the database.
up to this point, its easy enough, now the hard part.
if someone replys to the email they receive from mailman, how to i get mailman to either post the reply into the mysql database, or another option will be send my JBoss servlet the email formatted into some kind of xml that the JBoss can use to post into the forum.
if anyone can point me into a direction to do this, it would help me a lot. i just downloaded 2.1.5 and am starting to find my way around the code, but that will take a while.
thanks willie
