Example 5: Example of a successful approval using Forward
To approve a bounced message, forward it to your list and add an
"Approved:" line at the very top.
Before sending, you may need to delete bits of extraneous information that
your e-mail software may have inserted at the top of the message
(for example, your automatic signature, if you have one, or any header lines
that aren't part of the original message).
Majordomo does not remove these automatically.
|
This is what you send:
|
Header:
|
To: my-list@bu.edu
Subject: Re: Bounced Message
|
Body:
|
Approved: PASSWORD <-- you add this line
Date: Tue, 15 Apr 1997 09:17:48 -0500
From: "Somebody" <somebody@somewhere>
To: my-list@bu.edu
Subject: Test message

When Majordomo receives your approval message, it will extract the
original message and distribute it to your list.
Your list's subscribers will never see your approval message, but will
instead see the original message.

This is what Majordomo will pretend that it received:
|
Header:
|
Date: Tue, 15 Apr 1997 09:17:48 -0500
From: "Somebody" <somebody@somewhere>
To: my-list@bu.edu
Subject: Test message
|
Body:
|
This is a test message to the my-list mailing list.
