Hi,
I'm new to php (ok new, try 3 days ;), althought, I'm finding it fun, I
'm trying to think of a project to do, to get me more into it.
And after having a discussion with a friend and also setting up several
Mailman mailing lists for people that want to compose HTML mails and
post them as newsletters, it got me thinking, would I be able to create
a similar program to mailman in php?
So admins just login to the list. copy and past the html into a text box
and php then renders it for a preview, then if they like it, they click
send, this send queries the database and sends it to all the people list
to receive mail on that list.
I would assume that the sending could be handed off somehow to
sendmail/postfix?
The list front end would also hold list preferances as well, for
subscribers and admins,
basically I want to mimik Mailman, but in php and be able to render
previews of mails first, basically it will be a newsletter program,
rather than a mailing list one, which is where Mailman falls over.
Cheers
Mark
