now my question is, I have the clients old list ( collected from a plain text file ) which is about 20K in address, normally i would as user who controls list do:
�
xargs < textfile ezmlm-sub ~/newsletter
�
and they would all get imported no problemo
�
since all the domains are created vpopmail from qmailadmin, would i do this as vpopmail or can i just do it as root or whatever and just specify the full path to the newsletter dir. ie:
�
xargs < /path/to/textfile ezmlm-sub /path/to/newsletter
Wow, I've been adding as root, but that's not a good plan. If you do, users won't be able to unsubscribe, and qmailadmin will have trouble managing the subscriber list.
Best to do it as user vpopmail.
Also, an easier way to subscribe the users is:
ezmlm-sub /path/to/newsletter < /path/to/textfile
