Email Aliases with Ensim
First, modify bounce.cgi and signup-list1.cgi to contain your ListMail URL.
** Ensim Note: You must modify the following line in each CGI script:
bounce.cgi:
$http_program = "/usr/bin/wget -O /dev/null " . $listmail_url . "/bounce.php";
$http_program = "/usr/bin/curl " . $listmail_url . "/bounce.php";
signup-listX.cgi
$http_program = "/usr/bin/wget -O /dev/null " . $listmail_url . "/signup.php";
$http_program = "/usr/bin/curl " . $listmail_url . "/signup.php";
Next, upload the CGI scripts to your cgi-bin directory and CHMOD (set permissions) them to 755.
Your server should support procmail. We need to put a file called .procmailrc in your HOME directory.
Open a new file with a text-editor such as Notepad. Copy & paste the following lines of text:
:0
* ^TO_bounce@yoursite.com
| /path/to/your/cgi-bin/bounce.cgi
:0
* ^TO_signup@yoursite.com
| /path/to/your/cgi-bin/signup-list1.cgi
Replace bounce@yoursite.com with your ListMail bounce address.
Replace signup@yoursite.com with the signup address of your choice.
Replace /path/to/your/cgi-bin with the full server path to your cgi-bin.
If you have created additional signup scripts, you can add those too. Copy the 3 line format above for as many addresses as you want and files as you have set up.
Save the file as procmailrc.txt, or similar, in a temporary folder that will be easy to access with your FTP program.
Upload the file into your home directory (not your mainwebsite_html directory, the one up from that) and rename the new remote file to .procmailrc
Note: The reason for renaming these files once they've been uploaded is because on a Windows platform you can't have a file with a period as the first letter of the filename, ie: .procmailrc, or otherwise. It is recommended that you rename the file once you have uploaded it with FTP. |
