Top Forums UNIX for Advanced & Expert Users What is the Maximum number of characters that i can store in a variable? Post 53786 by pcshan on Sunday 25th of July 2004 04:58:36 AM

Reason why i need large amount of data on a variable

Thanks for all your valuable suggestions.

I store a list of mail ids in a .lis file and from a shell script i retrieve all the mail ids and put it in a variable by using blankspace as delimiter.

And i export that variable. So, there is another program which makes use of that exported variable to send the e-mail to e-mail addresses stored in that variable.

When i tried with multiple entires, it allows only 512 characters.

Please suggest me if there is any work around.

Thanks and Regards

mlmmj-process(1)					      General Commands Manual						  mlmmj-process(1)

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. SEE ALSO
The file TUNABLES from the mlmmj source distribution or in the documentation directory of the operating system distribution. AUTHORS
