Re: [newbie] Global Email List for local users on Network?
Hi All, This will definitely look funny. I asked the question and now I'm replying to my own submission!! Anyway, I just found out that Linux/Mandrake DOES NOT support such a list!! Which is good. Even though now I have to manually type up all my users and email them through BCC to avoid further spam complications. Thanks again to those who have helped, Karotu At 10:52 AM 4/12/2002 +1200, you wrote: Hi there, I'm currently administrating a small dial-up network/domain with the help of webmin.

Does Mandrake or Webmin have a sort of a global email address that will automatically represents ALL users on the network rather than having to copy all the users and then update the list whenever there is a change? I actually have done that hard part now but I know I have left out the extra email aliases in Postfix. I do hope there is a global list that exist so that I could email everybody straight away. Also, I am worried that if the list exists, are there limitations on who can send such emails? I certainly don't want spammers on my network.

Thanks again in advance, Karotu You should be able to create a user group (unix group) and then add whomever you wish to have in it - then you should be able to send email to that group... -- Wed Dec 4 11:25:00 EST 2002 .o0 linux user:267497 0o. |____ | kühn media australia | / \ /| |'-. | http://kma.0catch.com | .\__/ || | | | | _ / `._ \|_|_.-' | stephen kühn | | / \__.`=._) (_ | email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | |/ ._/ || | email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | |'. `\ | | |icq: 5483808 | ;/ / | | | | smk ) /_/| |.---.| | mobile: 0410-728-389 | ' `-`' | Berkeley, New South Wales, AU Coralament*Best Grötens*Liebe Grüße*Best Regards*Elkorajn Salutojn Come, let us hasten to a higher plane, Where dyads tread the fairy fields of Venn, Their indices bedecked from one to _n, Commingled in an endless Markov chain! -- Stanislaw Lem, Cyberiad Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?
