Is there already a hack to import messages from a mailbox into a forum?

How about integrating with a mailman mailing list for membership management? I am thinking of a script that generates HTTP requests to log in to a mailman script and post admin forms to add members etc. - ugly but the only way I can think of to integrate a mailman mailing list such as you get with most cPanel hosting accounts with XOOPS.

Did you ever get anywhere with this?

I just created a simple block to allow my members to subscribe to two GNU Mailman mailing lists by clicking on a submit button.

I would be very interested to know if you got any more integration.

Here is my very simple block for subscribing:

global $xoopsUser;

if (
is_object($xoopsUser)) {
    
$email $xoopsUser->getVar('email');
}

echo 
"Click to subscribe";
echo 
'';
echo 
';
echo 
$email;
echo 
'">';
echo 
'';
echo 
'';


This brings up a minor bug with the XOOPS 2.2.x custom php block method - you cannot use \ to escape things! When you submit the page it comes back without the \ . eg. using \" doesn't work.
