NAME
       ezmlmsubrc - set up a minimal sublist

SYNOPSIS
       ezmlm-make -C ezmlmsubrc -options dir dot local host

DESCRIPTION
       ezmlmglrc instructs ezmlm-make(1) to create dir and files within it to
       support the local@host sublist. The sublist handles bounces, but not
       subscriptions. It is intended for creation of sublists that are part of
       an SQL database supported distributed ezmlm list. For creation of
       regular sublists, use ezmlm-make(1) with ezmlmrc(5).

REQUIRED SWITCHES
       While these switches can be omitted, the list will not function unless
       they are specified.

       -3 mainlocal
              Local name of the main list for which this list is a sublist. If
              the sublist is a sublist for digests, mainlocal should refer to
              the mail list, i.e. stripped of ``-digest''. This is required in
              order for the bounce texts to refer to the correct archive. Use
              the -d switch!

       -4 mainhost
              Host name of the main list for which this list is a sublist.

       -6 host:port:user:pass:db:table
              SQL connect info. Specifies the host and port to connect to, the
              user/password to use, the database name, and the root table
              name.  The host defaults to ``localhost'', the database and
              table to ``ezmlm''. The port default is the default for the
              particular SQL server type used. For sublists disseminating a
              digest, ``table'' will end in ``_digest''.

OPTIONS
       -d     This sublist is a sublist of a digest list.  The -3 argment used
              should be the local name of the main list, rather than the
              digest list, i.e. the terminal ``-digest'' should be stripped.

       -5 owner
              The address to which to redirect mail send to local-owner@host.
              The default is the owner address for the main list.

USAGE
       A common task is to create both a sublist for the main list and a
       sublist for the corresponding digest. Note that the local list names
       are given as is, whereas the main list name always refers to the main
       list itself (and not its digest). The main list is
       ``mainloc@mainhost'', the local sublist is ``me-sub1@myhost''; the main
       digest is ``mainloc-digest@mainhost'' and the local digest sublist is
       ``me-sub1-digest@myhost''.

       ezmlm-make -Cezmlmsubrc -3 mainloc -4 mainhost -6 mainhost::user:pw:db:tab
       ~/DIR ~me/.qmail-sub1 me-sub1 myhost

       ezmlm-make -Cezmlmsubrc -d -3 mainloc -4 mainhost -6 mainhost::user:pw:db:tab
       -d ~/DIR ~me/.qmail-sub1-digest me-sub1-digest myhost
