Thank you sun-managers for all your help. Don't know which of these
suggestions I will implement yet, but I wanted to get the summary
out... Hope I got everything right...
Thanks again everyone!
Dave
My original question:
| I need to set up an automatic mail response system - much like the
| sun-managers "automatic request response system" - ie: to add and
| delete names from the sun-managers mail list.
|
| My application would need to understand just one command and one
| argument in the form of "get 12.1234" Which would tell the system to
| e-mail document 12.1234 to the requester.
|
| Given the requesters e-mail address and document number requested, I
| can write the script to get the document mailed out... But I'm not much
| of a script writer, so detailed help on the other parts where possible
| would be appreciated. An actual example would be great. (I do have
| perl here if that helps).
|
| If it's not that much more work, I would like to set up not only the
| automatic request part, but the entire sun-managers set-up (different
| subject and just for Chipcom's world wide employees) - That is being
| able to send a question (have it go to the list), have the "reply" go
| back to the sender (not the list).
