Hello,
A colleague told me about the existence of DBMail. Sounds very cool. I
have not yet installed it, as I'd have to upgrade my MySQL installation
first. Before I do install DBMail, I'd like to ask if it's possible to
use DBMail simply as a Mailman archiver. Mailman, by default, uses
Pipermail to archive messages. But it is possible to configure a
different external archiver with a mm_cfg.py directive like in the
following example that points to MHonarc:
PUBLIC_EXTERNAL_ARCHIVER = '/usr/bin/mhonarc -add -outdir
/var/mhonarc/archives/%(listname)s >> /tmp/out_external_archiver'
This looks like a simple pipe and I'd like to do the same kind of thing
with DBMail in the hopes of getting Mailman list messages into a
database. I imagine I'd just have to set up a "user" for each list,
right? Has anyone done this? Does it make sense?
Thanks,
Kevin McCann
