This custom scenario condition allows the definition of users permitted to send messages to a list without being owner/editor/member of it. Is is usefull for enviroments where you have users that should be allowed to send to many lists but he/she does not want to subscribe to them, e.g the president of a company.
This custom scenario condition is a response to my Feature Request #669.
- In the main sympa configurariton path, e.g. '/etc/sympa', create a folder called 'custom_conditions'.
- Put publisher.pm file in this folder.
- Put the configuration file, i.e.
publisher.conf, in the main sympa configuration folder, e.g./etc/sympa. - Add entries to the configuration file followind the format specified there.
- Copy the send scenario files to the location where custom scenario file should be stored, e.g.
/etc/sympa/scenari. See the documentation for all the information - Modify your send scenario files to include lines like these in the correct order:
CustomCondition::publisher([listname],[sender],) smtp,dkim -> request_auth
CustomCondition::publisher([listname],[sender],) smime,md5 -> do_it
- The final
do_itaction can be changed toeditorkeyif you want the posts from the allowed user to be moderated by the editors of the list. - Check that all the files and folders mentioned in this readme file are readable by the system user executing sympa.
- Restart sympa and apache services.
- These services should be restarted every time the configuration file is changed.
- The name of the list defined in the configuration file should not include the domain name.
- The configuration file does not support wildcards.
- I have only tested this custom scenario condition in sympa 6.2.16 under Debian Stretch.
