How do I install phplist?
Installation
phplist is a program that can be used to send bulk, announcement-only email messages. It is like mailman, however, it does not have the ability to due discussion lists.
If you would like to setup phplist for your account, you can do so by following these directions:
- Request a new database by posting a ticket
- Download the latest version from the site's download page
- Add a new email address that will be used to handle bounces
- Edit your config/config.php:
- Add the db user, db password, and db name (which we will provide after you post the ticket for a new database)
- Add the username and password for the bounce email address that you created above
- Set:
$bounce_mailbox_port = “995/pop3/ssl”;
- Modify the test line to read:
define (“TEST”,0);
- Set the bulk smtp mailer to:
define("PHPMAILERHOST",'bulk.mayfirst.org');
Upgrading
If you install a program in your web directory, you will need to take responsibility for keeping it up to date!
With phplist, you can monitor security patches by subscribing to the security list.
