Smartlist/Posting to 2 Lists Simultaneously

1998-10-06 15:33:13
I have an unusual "list server" set up on my ISP for a high school news
forum. We don't have root on the ISP, so we couldn't mess with the aliases
file. We are using procmail/Smartlist to accomplish our goals in a strange
way. Our .procmailrc looks like this:

LOGFILE=$HOME/.procmail/log

:0
* ^From:(_dot_)*rivhillregister(_at_)lawlab(_dot_)com
{
    :0fw
    | /homeh/hawks/slist/.bin/flist hawkslist
}

:0
* ^From:(_dot_)*alan_s(_at_)shaknet(_dot_)clark(_dot_)net
{
    :0fw
    | /homeh/hawks/slist/.bin/flist hawkslist
}

:0
* ^From:(_dot_)*housekeeping(_at_)lawlab(_dot_)com
{
    :0fw
    | /homeh/hawks/slist/.bin/flist housekeeping
}

:0
* ^Subject:.*HOUSEKEEPING
{
    :0fw
    | /homeh/hawks/slist/.bin/flist housekeeping
}

:0
local

Very simply put, this file tells procmail to push the mail into the
smartlist, or not, depending on who the mail is from. Now, we want to
digest this list for a few subscribers who are bothered by the volume. Can
I just add ",digestname" after the listname in each of the lines above and
expect it to push the mails in two directions at once? If not, what would
be a suitable way to accomplish this? Thanks for your help.


One net to rule them all, One net to find them,
One net to bring them all, and using Unix bind them.
