Re: [nc-intake] Agenda August 16 NC

[Vany Martinez <vany_martinez@yahoo.com>]

Hi Elisabeth and all:

Thank you for your clarification.

Then I misunderstood the request that Dany made.  The
scripts I found are for managing bounces only.

My apologizes for the confussion.  

However, and reading some of the scripts I have found
to manage bounces, I think that with the proper
modifications, it can be used to warn members of a
mailing list that they have exceeded the numbers of
postings (without taking away their rights to post
temporarily or permanently).  However, this won't be
automatical as we wish, but it can make lighter the
workload of managing a mailing list.

I suggest that Elisabeth shows such scripts to her
technicall staff in order they can do something with
them.  Anyway, the benefit will not be only for the
DNSO, also for mailing lists at AFNIC.

So because it happens that I was preparing myself to
speak about the tools I have found to manage bounces
with Majordomo, and not about scripts that send
automated messages for those who makes more than five
postings a day, then I think we should exclude it from
the agenda, at least until someone (me, or anyone else
who would wish to contribute with an script or AFNIC
saying that they did it).

Other approach is the we speak about it and what
actions can be done in order to get such features
(asking for cooperation of GA members to donate their
skills in programming, for example).

What do you think?

Best Regards
Vany
