I have yet to successfully create the mailing list option. When I send a test message, the mail kicks back. Here is the error message.

===START ERROR MESSAGE===

This message was created automatically by mail delivery software.

A message that you sent could not be delivered to one or more of its recipients. This is a permanent error. The following address(es) failed:

pipe to |/home/rsprague/public_html/robinsprague/fudforum2/data/scripts/maillist.ph p 1
generated by legacy(dot)FUDforum2(at)mydomain(dot)com
local delivery failed

===END ERROR MESSAGE===

This tells me something is working, but isn't quite executing things properly.

Mail is not making it through into the POP3 mail box. This is confirmed by web mail. So it is being delivered, kicked back, and lost.

Here is what I am using for the mail filtering.

===START MAIL FILTER===

$message_headers contains "legacy(dot)fudforum2(at)mydomain(dot)com" |/home/rsprague/public_html/robinsprague/fudforum2/data/scripts/maillist.ph p 1

===END MAIL FILTER===

There is discussion about a PHP binary, but I don't know what that is all about.

Does any of this sound familiar? Any suggestions?

Thanks.

I checked out the PHP server info for my web host. I modified the first line of maillist.php to per FUDforum documentation.

#!/usr/local/lib/php -q

Here is info on my server if it will help.

Did you unlock the forum's files?

Files are unlocked.

I found out through talking with Rush, that my maillist.php and nntp.php (if that is what they are, need to verify) files are set at chmod 666 and need to be at 755.

So this is what I'm waiting for next. This should solve the problem.

Question. Will the mail lists work with the files "locked?" I would prefer using this security option.

Mailing list script won't run with locked files, since in locked mode only the webserver will have access to them, thus preventing successful execution of the maillist.php script.
