and what permission level that login has. Another way of solving this would be an ssl/mysql connection, which is fine … has anyone solved this problem yet? Any sample code or friendly hints would be appreciated.
I suppose the SOAP-interface might (or at least should) allow you to perform the desired operations. I'd avoid touching the database directly and the sympa-documentation seems to agree with me.

"A SOAP server for Sympa has recently been added to the package. This server provides an API to integrate simple mailing list services within another application ; for example include a list subscription form in a PHP page. In the past, external applications would directly access Sympa's database, thus bypassing Sympa's authentication and authorization procedures. The SOAP interface makes it easy to develop a Sympa Uportal channel; this has been done by the french ESUP project, along with CAS authentication."
