Can I get a list of the currently subscribed users?

Yep… Here goes:

arloafoe at cs.vu.nl
rajat at ix.netcom.com
jaimi at alt.net
scall at devolution.com
michael at surfnetcity.com.au
marq at students.cc.tut.fi
dsowsy at cs.uml.edu
mac at mars.zserv.tuwin.ac.at
homic at wpi.edu
njh at cs.monash.edu.au
ctm at ardi.com
slouken at devolution.com
andrewb at metronet.com
Michael.Huehne at de.uu.net

(BTW, at least 2 domains on that list I have been within millimetres of
blocking off from sending mail to my system :slight_smile:

Also, can ezlm set the Reply-To address as sdl at surfnetcity.com.au?

Nope, ezmlm is very simple-yet-fast.

Djb doesn’t like parsing messages (I think it’s because he’s too busy
suing the US government, but he says that it’s for security :-), so I’d
literally have to modify the .qmail-sdl something like this:

|grep -v -i ‘^Reply-to:’ | (echo "Reply-to: " ;
cat -) | ezmlm-send ‘/var/qmail/alias/SDL’

(on one line… there’s three lines before it that do other things)

(or something like that) to get it to do so, without adding about 50 lines
of C code :slight_smile:

I can do it if you want, but I count 5 forks there, instead of one, so you
may get a couple of seconds lag in the messages if the list gets busy…

Do you want me to make the list a only-subscribers-may-post list?

Perl rocks. :slight_smile:

Except on my system :slight_smile:

I measured a 4 line perl script against a shell script using cut and grep,
and the shell script won :slight_smile:

Do you need me to write a perl filter for you? Perl has huge mountains. :slight_smile:

That would be nice, but a C one would do better if you could…

It’s really only checking if the Reply-To: field exists, removing it if
it does, then outputting the message with the Reply-To: header in the
message set to , but my perl implementation sux
for some reason :slight_smile:
