Users can subscribe / unsubscribe themselves in %NOTIFYTOPIC% of each TWiki web. The Perl script <code>**mailnotify**</code> is called by a deamon in regular intervals. The script is sending an automated email to subscribed users in case some topics changed in a web within this interval. +## <a name="Web_Changes_Notification_Service"> Web Changes Notification Service </a> -### <a name="Configuring_Outgoing_Mail"> Configuring Outgoing Mail </a> - -%WIKITOOLNAME% will use the <code>**Net::SMTP**</code> module in case it is installed on your system.

Please consult <code>**man crontab**</code> of how to modify the table that schedules program execution at certain intervals. Example: - - % crontab -e - 15,45 * * * * (cd ~twiki/public_html/bin; ./mailnotify -q) - -The above line will call mailnotify at 15 minutes and 45 minutes past every hour. The <code>**-q**</code> switch suppresses all normal output. - -On Windows NT / 2000 you can use a scheduled task. - --- [[PeterThoeny]] - 16 Mar 2001 <br /> +%INCLUDE\{"%TWIKIWEB%.MonitoringSiteActivity"\}% |
