[Mailman-Users] Accessing Mailman database file with Java

[Christopher Cheng]

Is there a patch/plugin to make mailman uses mysql/mssql as backend?

 

Reading the code of MailList.py, it seems that it is using cPickle to save
the mail list

 

fp = open(fname_tmp, 'w')

# Use a binary format... it's more efficient.

cPickle.dump(dict, fp, 1)

fp.flush()

if mm_cfg.SYNC_AFTER_WRITE:

os.fsync(fp.fileno())

fp.close()

 

If I want to read the file using my Java program, either I have to the file
serialized by cPickle or modify the python code to write it to RDBMS. 

 

Anybody has an idea?
