Run program before lyris@

This setting allows you extend ListManager command processing with your own program. When mail is sent to lyris@… your program will first be run and then your program can do any processing it wishes on the message. If your program wants to stop processing of the message, it can delete it. See How can I extend ListManager with my own programs?.

Run program after lyris@

This setting allows you extend ListManager command processing with your own program. When mail is sent to lyris@… the message will be processed and then your program can do any additional processing it wishes on the message.

Run extensions

This option allows you turn off the programming "Extensions" feature of ListManager. The fields for "run program before" and "run program after" will continue to appear in the web interface, but they will have no effect. By default, extensions are disabled.

Some administrators prefer to not allow extensions on their server, in order to enhance security.

Extension directory

This option allows you to define the directory where all the ListManager extensions are located. This adds a level of security to extensions, as it prevents ListManager from running any program on your computer—only programs in this directory are allowed.

TCLPORT password

(required) The password that you want the ListManager Command Protocol to use. The server uses port 2021 to communicate with the web interface and with other programs. Access to the Command Protocol is password protected, so that outsiders cannot affect your server. The default password is "TCLPORTPasswd". You may want to change this password to give you a greater level of security.

However, if you do change this password, immediately after changing it the web interface will no longer work. This is because the web interface configuration file tclhttpd.rc will still have the old password, and will no longer be able to access the Command Protocol of your ListManager. So, immediately after making a change to the Tclport Password and saving the change, you will need to edit the tclhttpd.rc file that is found in your ListManager/tclweb/lib directory. You will want to change the line Config tclport_password            {TCLPORTPasswd} to reflect the new password that you have set.

Note: If you do not change your Tclport Password, you are still well protected by the Tclport Hosts setting available at Utilities: Administration: Server: Server Settings: Security: GUI Hosts.
