HI Alex,

May I ask what software you're using to manage your mailing list?


thanks

Just something I threw together. If you are interested in it, you can grab the source:

http://gossamer-threads.com/...rce/nph-mail.cgi.txt

Might need some customization to fit your needs, but works for me.

Cheers,

Alex

Alex,

Great! I'm currently searching exactly that.

One question: Can it handle a large amount of subscribers? The script I currently use gets killed every 200 emails or so (my mailing list has more than 2,000 subscribers).

Sincerely,

To be honest, I don't know. Give it a try and let me know if it does! =)

One thing, try setting your path to sendmail as:

/usr/lib/sendmail -t -odq

The -odq means quene messages for later delivery which offers better performance when sending mass mails..

Hope this helps,

Alex

Alex,

Has it been determined if your email script can handle a mailing list of 2000 users?

Thanks,

Vic

I got the mailing list script to work fine on my home computer but for some reason, its not working on the server. Its giving me an error:

Can't locate CGI.pm in @INC at ./nph-mail2.cgi line 9

--- this line is: use CGI qw(:cgi);

If anyone knows of a fix for this problem, please let me know. Thanks.

Vic: no one's told me yes or no.. I can get a list of about 1200 on the Links list to mail through the web with no problems, but your mileage may vary..

Jason: You need to install CGI.pm module, it's quite common and is part of the standard perl distribution.

Cheers,

Alex

Alex,

Regarding nph-mail.cgi:

How do you set up the "admin.pass" file or bring up the form for creating the mail message?
