The message below piqued my interest in creating a sendmail alias on our
server that pipes to a script in order to create lists. Can anyone tell me
where I can find information on possible security issues I should be aware
of in attempting this? (I don't know if all systems are like this, but on
ours, such scripts are run by smrsh in a particular directory.)
TIA,
