Hello, Mailman experts. I've been doing some development work for a Tokyo-based NPO that offers participation in a number of Mailman lists as one of the benefits of membership in the organization. Because membership in the organization is a requirement for participating in the Mailman discussions, the organization has not been providing members with direct access to the Mailman administrative features for subscribing and unsubscribing, but instead has been providing a homegrown administrative interface that uses PHP and curl to simulate user interactions via POST.
When a recent update to Mailman introduced CSRF tokens, however, this approach broke down and the organization has been struggling to figure out how to manage the lists ever since. We know that Mailman 3 provides an API, which is exactly what we need, but because the site and Mailman lists are both on shared hosting, we are currently only able to use Mailman 2.1.x. Can anyone recommend a good approach to managing subscriptions in an automated way using either PHP or Python until such time as we can get our host to upgrade to Mailman 3? Any suggestions or pointers would be greatly appreciated. With many thanks in advance, Sako Eaton ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://wiki.list.org/x/AgA3 Security Policy: http://wiki.list.org/x/QIA9 Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org
