I have a client that is creating a site that allows users to email their client's that are double opted in, an email and it will automagically merge their information, and it will send them all out very quickly. It is supposed to be much more efficient than sendmail.
He is using Mail::Bulkmail to accomplish this.
However, when I look at the conf file, it looks broke.
Here is a sample:
####################
#
# First, we'll set up values for Mail::Bulkmail
#
####################
define package Mail::Bulkmail
#server_class stores the server object that we're going to use.
#uncomment the DummyServer line and comment out the Server line for d
+ebugging
server_class = Mail::Bulkmail::Server
#server_class = Mail::Bulkmail::DummyServer
#log our errors
ERRFILE = /home/system/public_html/cgi-bin/error.txt
BAD = /home/system/public_html/cgi-bin/bad.txt
GOOD = /home/system/public_html/cgi-bin/good.txt
banned = /home/system/public_html/cgi-bin/banned.txt
#by default, our precedence will be list
#remember, it can only be list, bulk, or junk
precedence = list
#we're going to recommend that you follow the 80 character per line l
+imit
force80 = 1
Why do all these not have $ or @ signs to make them perl variables?
Do I need to go in there and fix all that for him to make it work on a unix machine?
Thank you,
Richard
