Subject: Submitting patches, more automatic list creation
Date: Sun, 06 Aug 2006 17:09:01 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <44D6222D.5020802@kite.se> (raw)
Are patches welcome, or.. is this patch of any interest?
I'm trying to automate list creatation when mlmmj-make-ml.sh is used in
another script.
I've added some options to mlmmj-make-ml.sh to make it easier for us to
use it.
I'm also considering to add an alternate listdir :
/var/spool/mlmmj/$LISTNAME@$FQDN, would that be of interest to have in a
switch?
I'm pasting in this patch into thunderbird, I hope it doesn't get garbeled.
Regards,
Magnus
