NAME

       mlmmj-unsub - unsubscribe address from a mailinglist run by mlmmj

SYNOPSIS

       mlmmj-unsub -L /path/to/list -a john@doe.org [-b] [-c | -C] [-d | -n | -N] [-h] [-q] [-r | -R] [-s] [-U] [-V]

       -a: Email address to unsubscribe

       -b: Behave as if unsubscription is due to bouncing (internal use)

       -c: Send goodbye mail

       -C: Request mail confirmation

       -d: Unsubscribe from the digest version of the list

       -h: This help

       -L: Full path to list directory

       -n: Unsubscribe from the nomail version of the list

       -N: Unsubscribe from the normal version of the list

       -q: Be quiet (don't notify owner about the unsubscribe)

       -r: Behave as if request arrived via email (internal use)

       -R: Behave as if confirmation arrived via email (internal use)

       -s: Don't send a mail to the address if not subscribed

       -U: Don't switch to the user id of the listdir owner

       -V: Print version

DESCRIPTION

       This  utility  is  used to unsubscribe people from the specified mailinglist. It will remove the specified email address from every file in
       the <listdir>/subscribers.d/, <listdir>/digesters.d/ and <listdir>/nomailsubs.d/ directories (or if the -d, -n or -N switch is given,  only
       the one relevant directory).

       Unless  the -U switch is used it will switch its user id to the user id owning the list directory. This is done to make sure that new files
       created are having correct permissions.

       Normally a mail is sent to the person being unsubscribed if the address is not subscribed to the list. If the -s switch is used such a mail
       will not be sent.

       When neither -c nor -C is specified, unsubscription happens silently from the point of view of the subscriber. When -q is specified, unsub-
       scription happens silently from the point of view of the list owner. Use of -s  is  recommended	to  ensure  you  don't	spam  unsubscribed
       addresses by accident.

NAME

       mlmmj-process - process mail for an mlmmj managed mailinglist

SYNOPSIS

       mlmmj-process -L /path/to/list -m /path/to/mail [-h] [-P] [-V]

       -h: This help

       -L: Full path to list directory

       -m: Full path to mail file

       -P: Don't execute mlmmj-send (debugging only)

       -V: Print version

DESCRIPTION

       This is the binary which processes a mail. Examples of what such processing is:

       o   Access control

	   Using  the  access  rules  specified in <listdir>/control/access to perform access control to the list. This is done before headers are
	   stripped, so one can create allow rules based on headers that are later stripped.

       o   Header stripping

	   Headers specified in <listdir>/control/delheaders are deleted from the mail.

       o   Header addition

	   Headers specified in <listdir>/control/customheaders are added to the mail.	This could be headers like List-ID: or Reply-To:

       o   List control

	   In case there's a mail with a recipient delimiter it's not a regular list mail.  Processing of these happens in mlmmj-receive as  well.
	   Examples  of  such are subscription requests, mails to owner etc.  It will base it's recipient delimiter detection on the Delivered-To:
	   header if present. If not, the To: header is used.

       o   Moderation

	   If the list is moderated, it will happen in mlmmj-process.

       When processing is done, it will invoke the needed binary according to whatever mail it is. If it's a subscription request it  will  invoke
       mlmmj-sub, if it's a regular list mail it will invoke mlmmj-send.
