Hi

I was just wodering if it was possible to put a checkbox on a site and allow users to sign up for multiple ezines/lists that are off site automatically. If so, any ideas on how this could be done? Obviously i could just store the email address in different files on a server and ad them all manually, but that would get to tedious to have to ad all the users manually. Any ideas would be greatly apperciated.

Thanks

I would think that you'd have to send the data to scripts on the other servers, which would then put the data in text files, or you could simply have your own scripts put them in one large text file and use FTP to transfer them to the other servers once a week or so.
