 |
|
Hello,
Searching for a simple mailing list manager. I only found mailman on gentoo. I emerge it, and I just see some suid bit binaries installed ! 
As I only want a simple mailing list manager, I search for another one. And I found one  : minimalist http://www.mml.org.ua/
Here is the ebuild 
| Code: |
DESCRIPTION="A perl-based minimal mailing list server"
SRC_URI="http://www.mml.org.ua/LIST/minimalist-2.4.tgz"
RESTRICT="nomirror"
HOMEPAGE="http://www.mml.org.ua/"
LICENSE="GPL-2"
KEYWORDS="~x86 ~sparc"
DEPEND="dev-lang/perl
virtual/mta"
src_install () {
dodoc docs/CHANGES.txt docs/README docs/virtual-domains.txt
docinto contrib
dodoc contrib/*
docinto FAQ
dodoc docs/FAQ/*
docinto sample
dodoc sample/lists.lst
docinto sample/sample
dodoc sample/sample/*
exeinto /usr/bin
doexe minimalist.pl
dodir /etc/minimalist
insinto /etc/minimalist
doins minimalist.conf-sample
}
pkg_postinst() {
einfo ""
einfo "Please read /usr/share/doc/${PF}/README for additional"
einfo "Setup information, minimalist will NOT run unless you follow"
einfo "those instructions!"
einfo ""
}
|
You must configure the /etc/minimalist/minimalist.conf file and read README.gz on /usr/doc/minimalist-2.4/

Hi,
Following some questions. You could find here a mini howto:
First, emerge minimalist. Then configure it:
| Code: |
cd /etc/minimalist
mv minimalist.conf-sample minimalist.conf
vi minimalist.conf
|
I setup the directory of List into /var/spool/minimalist with the following line into minimalist.conf
| Code: | directory = /var/spool/minimalist
|
Then, go into /var/spool/minimalist
Build a directory for each list, put in this directory 4 files: config footer info and list
In config:
| Code: |
# There can be any directives from 2nd and 3rd sections of
# minimalist.conf-sample.
maxsize = 400000
|
In footer
| Code: |
-----------------------------------------------------------
A problem with the list -~=> \o
|
In info:
| Code: |
Hello
Simple information a propos de cette liste: \l.
. Server's administrator: \a
. Domain: \d
. List's owner: \o
|
In list (take care to avoid blank line or comments):
| Code: |
address@domain.com
second@domain2.com
|
When this is done, you must configure your mailserver to use minimalist for each list you want. I use postfix and add the following line of /etc/mail/aliases:
| Code: |
listone: "|/usr/bin/minimalist.pl -d /etc/minimalist listone"
listone-owner: owner@domain.com
listtwo: "|/usr/bin/minimalist.pl -d /etc/minimalist listtwo"
listtwo-owner: owner@domain.com
|
That's all !
I expect its enough, feel free to post to add question.
