NAME

Mail::Toaster::Ezmlm - a batch processing tool for ezmlm mailing lists

SYNOPSIS

ezmlm.cgi -a [ add | remove | list ]

-a   action  - add, remove, list
-d   dir     - ezmlm list directory
-f   file    - file containing list of email addresses
-v   verbose - print verbose options

DESCRIPTION

Ezmlm.cgi is a command line and CGI application that allows a domain administrator (ie, postmaster@example.com) to add, remove, and list batches of email addresses. You can use this utility to subscribe lists of email addresses, delete a list of addresses, or simply retrieve a list of subscribers.

DEPENDENCIES

some functions depend on Mail::Ezmlm;
authentication depends on "vpopmail" (a perl extension)

If you need to run ezmlm.cgi suid, which is likely the case, then hacks to Mail::Ezmlm are required for the "list" function to work in taint mode. Also, for a perl script to run suid, you must have suidperl installed. Another (better) approach is to use Apache suexec instead of suidperl.

METHODS

new

Creates a new Mail::Toaster::Ezmlm object.

use Mail::Toaster::Ezmlm;
my $ez = Mail::Toaster::Ezmlm;
authenticate

Authenticates a HTTP user against vpopmail to verify the user has permission to do what they're asking.

dir_check

Check a directory and see if it's a directory and readable.

$ezmlm->dir_check(dir=>$dir);

return 0 if not, return 1 if OK.

lists_get

Get a list of Ezmlm lists for a given mail directory. This is designed to work with vpopmail where all the list for example.com are in ~vpopmail/domains.

$ezmlm->lists_get("example.com");

Put the logo on the HTML page. Sets the URL from $conf.

$ezmlm->logo(conf=>$conf);

$conf is values from toaster.conf.

Example:
   $ezmlm->logo(
       web_logo_url => 'http://www.tnpi.net/images/head.jpg',
       web_log_alt  => 'tnpi.net logo',
   );
process_cgi

Accepts input from HTTP requests, presents a HTML request form, and triggers actions based on input.

$ez->process_cgi();
process_shell

Get input from the command line options and proceed accordingly.

subs_add

Subcribe a user (or list of users) to a mailing list.

$ezmlm->subs_add(
    list      => $list_name,
    list_dir  => $list_dir,
    requested => $address_list
 );
subs_list

Print out a list of subscribers to an Ezmlm mailing list.

$ezmlm->subs_list(list=>$list, dir=>$list_dir);
