What is the best way to define a mailing list so that if I send a message to group@zyga.com for example, the message would go to member of 'group'? Thanks in advance for the help. the best way? well, that depends how many list u want; as well as how often does the member list file has to be modified. The easiest way is, of course, setting up another account with no valid shell, and put all the addresses in ~newaccount/.forward another easy way for doing this is to put all the address as an alias entry in /etc/aliases another way, prolly a more elegent one, would be to make an alias file, and modify /etc/sendmail.conf to add the alias file to ur sendmail aliases. I have Majordomo running on Ngbert.org, and using Majordomo is prolly the best way if u don't have time for list management, or if u have multiple lists. hope this helps... /ayn -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: 2.6.2 iQCVAwUBMquI4Z6qvWJYgw1hAQGGLwQAjqyHuHJOUOQvpoV0KFVp/AJQ3QzC68AM 2XkOuHomE5RtVxmflDGwxXM229KSB95b3MBXaitpcbG7vSSJkWhq1BJBI32q6OlR KDIQ9DatRZ9hxoGrbxg3mk6cBYGgGWBrfIZD8B7GT6z0OGe/HIQqkXkEgckoXq+6 5ATh2/Oblag= =ImqI -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- Andrew Y Ng <ayn@CMU.EDU> | Carnegie Mellon University http://andrew.Ngbert.org | ECE major, Music minor campus ph: 412/862-2836 | voice mail: 412/268-6700 x30027 | talk: finger ayn@andrew.Ngbert.org * NGBERT.ORG! * | for online status http://www.Ngbert.org | finger ayn@CMU.EDU for more info... --------------------------X------------------------------------- NetBSD FreeBSD Linux NeXT Be Solaris !windoze nal.
