Member Fields (Obsolete)

Important Note

The following mail merge tags, while fully supported in ListManager 5.0, are now obsolete. We recommend you use the new tags described above in Message Personalization and Scripting.

The following "member" attributes are extracted from the person posting a message to a list. To substitute attributes from the person receiving a message (the recipient) see the Recip.XXX mail merge fields.

$subst('member.nameemail')
The full name and email address of this member. For example, you might want each posting to your list to have a header which identifies the original author, as in:

From: $subst('member.nameemail')

If a full name is not available, ListManager will only put the email address.

For example:

Bob Smith <bob@example.com>

Or if no name is available:

bob@example.com

$subst('member.emailaddr')
The email address of this member.

$subst('member.fullname')
The full name of this member. For example, you might want each posting to your list to have a header which identifies the original author, as in:

This message was written by $subst('member.fullname')

$subst('member.password')
The password of this member. In general, you would not want to include this in a list posting, since everyone who received the message would see the password. However, this field is useful in documents, such as the "hello" document, to inform the user of their password.

$subst('member.memberid')
The ID of this member, example: "3456"

$subst('member.list')
The name of the mailing list this member belongs to.

$subst('member.dateheld')

$subst('member.norepro')
Whether or not this member receives copies of their own postings.

$subst('member.cleanauto')
Whether or not this member will be automatically held if they bounce too much mail (create too many permanent failures).

$subst('member.comment')
