First, let me begin by saying that I am not a Perl programmer, nor do
I have intimate knowledge of the workings of Majordomo 1.94, or any
other MJ version. However, if the intent of 'which' is too allow an
individual to find out what list he/she/it is subscribed to; then I
suggest that it use the equivilent of the mungedomain function to
determine in which lists, if any, that the current e-mail address is
found and return only those lists, by name.
which <e-mail address of requestor>
Your e-mail address is subscribed to the following lists on this
server:
listone <subscription address>
listtwo <subscription address>
listthree <subscription address>
or if there are no matches at all:
which <e-mail address of requestor>
You are not subscribed to any lists on this server.
For further information contact ....".
If a user needs to confirm the exact e-mail address that he has
subscribed to a known list then maybe a command like 'me' or 'who me'
is required.
who me listname
using mungedomain returns the exact subscriber name that the
requestor's e-mail address maps to:
who me listname
Your subscriber address is: you@mach1.service.domain
Regards,
Jim
