[Mailman-Users] subscribing thru Email without requiringconfirmation.

2002-12-18 Thread Ziad Sidawi
Dear list members,
I would like to keep the confirmation part when someone subscribe...
However, is there a way where a special email can be send to the Mailman
where confirmation of the user is not required?

let me explain: I have a shopping cart program, and when a user completes
his order, I want to issue an email to subscribe this user to the mailing
list without having the mailing list sending the user an email to confirm.
On the same hand, I do not want to disable the functionality of confirmation
if a user tries to subscribe to the mailing list.

I have worked in the past with a program, where emails with a [password] in
the subject area, would be verified and if correct (pas for admin) then this
email is treated as coming from the admin, and hence the user is registered
without requiring confirmation email.

Any ideas?

Ziad

	Can you call the add_members script from your web program?

Well I tried it, with the following example
 form action=http://www.wads.com/mailman/admin/xshoplist/members;
method=POST
  textarea NAME=subscribees ROWS=10 COLS=60/textarea
  input name=send_welcome_msg_to_this_batch type=Hidden value=0 
   input type=SUBMIT value=  OK   name=SUBMIT
  /FORM

However, this does not work- since it will bring you to the password
protected Xshoplist Administrative Authentication page-

I guess I will take my question to the development mailing list, adn see if
they can help.

	I didn't mean to use the web page directly! Have your shopping cart 
script call the add_members script (located at [mailman home 
dir]/bin/add_members) along with the names you wish to add. No web 
interface required.
