Write to email forwarding file
Have small email forwarding service since 1996,
want to automate site, tired of doing it by hand.
Want to use DBman to register new users, and allow users to
change where to forward their mail.
Output to emaill forwarding file looks like this:
charlie@hisemail.com charlie@accesscom.net
joe@hisemail.com joe234@aol.com
etc.
Is there a modification written for DBMan that is similiar that I could modify?
Thanks,
Charlie

I'm sure DBMan would work great to add users and have them modify their forwarding address. Are you wanting the script to actually do the forwarding for you? Or do you just want to use the database for keeping your user records?

Not sure if these threads are what you need, but you may get some ideas.

This was is for subscibing to a listserve:

This one is for sending email to a second email address within your database.

You may be able to adapt that to use for your project.

Hope this helps
