Hello,
I need to add many users to the mailing list in my toaster installation.
From googling I found this script:

1. Make a text file containing:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
[EMAIL PROTECTED]

2. Make the mailing list using qmailadmin

3. Then inject the user from email.txt:
for i in `cat email.txt`
do /usr/bin/ezmlm-sub /home/vpopmail/domains/yourdomain.com/yourmaillist $i
done

Will that work? Especially I'm not sure whether it will be stored in mysql
database or not.
Thank you very much.

I'm fairly certain you need to install ezmlm with the MySQL option if you want the info stored that way. By default qmailtoaster stores the info in text files located in /home/vpopmail/domains/yourdomain.com/yourlistname/subscribers.

You could also do
        cat mylist.txt | /usr/bin/ezmlm-sub full_path_to_your_list
Either way I suggest creating a test list for these kinds of exercises. After you are done you can use
        /usr/bin/ezmlm-list full_path_to_your_list
to verify it works as expected, or
        ezmlm-list -n full_path_to_list
which gives the number of subscribers. You don't really want to learn on a live list...

P.s. This manual subscription method also skips the confirmation email normally sent to new subscribers...
