You can enable remote administration then have php send mail to: yourlistname-subscribe-new-user=example.com@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx This will subscribe new-user@xxxxxxxxxxx to the list yourlistname@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Make sure you use the 5th parameter in mail() to specify the remote admin/moderators email address. NB if you do not allow any other methods of subscribing to the list you may want to disable subscription moderation so the remote admin don't have to confirm each subscription request. -- Jason Wong -> Gremlins Associates -> www.gremlins.biz Open Source Software Systems Integrators * Web Design & Hosting * Internet & Intranet Applications Development * ------------------------------------------ Search the list archives before you post http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=php-general ------------------------------------------ /* The two things that can get you into trouble quicker than anything else are fast women and slow horses. */ -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
