Mail Question?
Hi,
This may be a dumb question but ...
Is there anyway to set it up so that ezmlm will allow certain mail
addresses "through" without being subscribed. Is there someway you can
subscribe without receiving email (a silent subscription of some sort). Is
the easiest way to just ask all committers to subscribe using their
@apache.org address ?
Cheers,
Pete

Peter,
The 'allow' list is implemented just like the subscriber list in
ezmlm-idx, so you can send email to
general-allow-subscribe@jakarta.apache.org
from the address you want to have a 'silent' subscription (to
general@jakarta.apache.org).
Vince.

That's what I usually do when I have to approve emails coming from
committers (or recognized as such by my flebile memory) and going to some
mailing list...

Yes, the moderator of the list does that. You can moderate "allow" a
moderated message by simply Reply-To-All (notice the CC email). That will
add the user to the allow file.

That is the same as being unsubscribed.
