I run several closed mail lists at Rootsweb.org using smartlist.
Now I need to move these lists to a domain using MailMan v. 2.0.13 and we
only allow users that is a member of our organization to add.
We have also a php page that unsub old mail addresses and add new mail
addresses through a mail command.
If ind that MailMan today support some few Majordomo email commands like
subscribe, but that command do not work on a closed list where all users
need an approval to enter.
Has last Mailman version added the Majordomo command like
Approve <password> subscribe |listname| |address|
and the other unsubscribe command
In case not,are there plans to add such commands.
In case, I would like to see a"silent" option which can be used when people
just change mail address and only send people message when they really
subscrive first time and finally unsubscribe.
The organisation has 7500 members, many of them change mailaddress quite
often because to prevent spam and of other reasons, and it would be a pain
in the ass to manually use the web interface to daily approve additions etc.
I want to automate all subscription as far as possible.
Hope it is possible.
