[Bug 1006345] Re: No email confirmation when subscribing via the REST API

[Florian Fuchs]

Pasted from IRC/#mailman:

florianf
barry: just to make sure: if you subscribe a new address to a mailing list via the rest API this new member will not get a confirmation mail, correct?

barry
florianf: that's right.  however, unless the email address has already been validated, no delivery will occur (i.e. unvalidated emails are filtered out of recipient lists).  i suppose we need to think about how to trigger an email confirmation for rest subscribed emails

...

florianf
barry: that's what robert's bug report is about: a rest-based subscription w/o postorius account should trigger an email opt-in mail…  

barry
florianf: one possibility is to add a flag to the POST variables for /members.  the semantics would be that *if* the email address is brand new, it should get a confirmation msg.  that would have to  be plumbed through, but i think that's fine.

rnix
barry: well then request parameters as control flags would be appropriate.. ?

barry
rnix: that's what i think too
