| 3 | STANDARD EZMLM DATABASE INTERFACE |
| 4 | |
| 5 | These files comprise the ezmlm subscriber database interface. issub.c and |
| 6 | subscribe.c are backwards compatible with ezmlm-0.53 in terms of function, |
| 7 | but use a case-insensitive hash for address storage, and take a few |
| 8 | extra args to be plug-in compatible with alternative interfaces. Logging to |
| 9 | the subscriber log (DIR/Log) is done from subscribe.c rather than externally, |
| 10 | and the subscriber from line is logged as well. |
| 11 | |
| 12 | searchlog.c allows access to DIR/Log. |
| 13 | |
| 14 | putsubs.c does all output of subscriber addresses, both to qmail for subscibers, |
| 15 | moderator sendouts, etc, and to list subscribers in reply to the -list command. |
| 16 | |
| 17 | Alternative subscriber db interface routines should perform equivalent services, |
| 18 | and fall back to these services if the alternative interface is not configured, |
| 19 | e.g. if DIR/sql doe not exist. |
