[Mailman-Users] Sending e-mail to the list via a webform?

[Scott Tirrell]

Hello there,

I'm new to the world of Mailman. I'm having trouble accomplishing something
that, I think, should be quite simple. I have done searches on Google to no
avail.

Anyway, I have a broadcast e-mail list set up for a client. They send out
alerts via a webform on an admin page. When I send an e-mail from the form
via PHP to my list's address with a "From:" header with an allowed poster's
e-mail address it... Well, doesn't send the message. I get no messages at
all. If I send the message directly from my mail client, it works like a
charm. I have CC'ed myself on the mail from the webform and the from: header
seems to be formed correctly. Can anyone think what would cause this
difference?

The reason that I am using a webform is that I also am updating information
on a web page via a MySQL database.

Thanks in advance for any help,
Scott Tirrell
