Dada Mail Hack of the day - DIY Whitelisting

August 24th 2005 PDT

I just realized that if you use the dada_bridge.pl plugin and: * check: Make this list a discussion list ( Messages from addresses that are allowed to post to this list should: ) * uncheck: be sent to the Subscription List. * and check: have a copy of the original message forwarded to: * and plug in an address (that's secret to you), any messages that go to the list email will be scanned to see if it's a subscriber and will only be forwarded to you if it is. This way, the subscription list acts like a whit ...Continue Reading

OK, should be fixed now - look for ver 1.38 of dada_bridge.pl in CVS. I've attached a diff file for geek points. Justin Simoni ...Continue Reading

That was a tricky one indeed! You probably have too change the line: if($li->{group_list} == 1){ into: if($li->{group_list} == 1 && $errors->{msg_not_from_list_owner} ){ which means there is no need to verify whether the from address is on the list or not. Will be more efficient too.

Hmm, It's still working for me, I'm suspecting that this line (703 or so): [snip] foreach(keys %$errors){ $status = 0 if $errors->{$_} == 1; last; } [/snip] is incorrect. Since hashes are fetched semi-randomly, whichever key you get first, will tell the fate of what status is set to and for whichever reason, it's a different order than me. It should probably read: [snip] foreach(keys %$errors){ if($errors->{$_} == 1){ $status = 0 ; last; } } [/snip] ...Continue Reading

Re: changing the "Sign In to Another List" link to "Administration"? (was: Re: some suggestions/improvements for Dada)

The admin link has a form to create a new list - not something you'd use if you didn't have the root password. It may be just easier to turn all these links off, unless you're logged in as root. > My only concern here is the wording. I can hear it now: > "...'Administration'?

It's my hope to be able to have Dada Mail blend into an already existing site and extend the site's functionality and content without having it look like, well, a program you've installed. The default looks is fine I guess - the goal is to make it simple and somewhat bare bones, perhaps to enti ...Continue Reading

Justin, are you one of only a few who "intermingles" Dada Mail with your other site content/design in this way? or (to your knowledge) is it quite common? I have a nice solution to the problem you describe, but the exact details -- as they apply to the *default* Dada Mail ...Continue Reading
