[Mailman-Users] Mailman and Sun ONE/iPlanet Messenger 5.2?

[Morgan Jones]

I am new to the list and to mailman so I apologize in advance if this
has been covered...

We are running Sun ONE/iPlanet messenger in Solaris 8.  For those
using the same, here's the issue that we're up against:

imsimta program -a .. forces programs to be registered with command
line arguments.  Mailman depends on the list name as an argument.
This would imply that that we need to register three new programs for
each list that is created.  This could get cumbersome fast.  Here's an
example:

$ bin/newlist morgantest
Enter the email of the person running the list: mjones6 at commnav.com
Initial morgantest password: 
Entry for aliases file:

## morgantest mailing list
## created: 14-Oct-2002 root
morgantest:              "|/opt/mailman/mail/wrapper post morgantest"
morgantest-admin:        "|/opt/mailman/mail/wrapper mailowner morgantest"
morgantest-request:      "|/opt/mailman/mail/wrapper mailcmd morgantest"
morgantest-owner:        morgantest-admin


The only sol'n I can see is to write a perl script that parses the
incoming message and execs the wrapper script with the appropriate
arguments..

Does anybody have an alternate solution?

thanks.
