The mailing list for listmasters using Sympa

[David Verdin <address@concealed>]

Yves,

I started (but didn't finish) updating the documentation regarding tasks.
You can find it there: http://www.sympa.org/wiki/manual/customizing#tasks

Anyway, it is quite difficult to create a task for a list.
You must fin a task-related parameter, i.e. one which will tell sympa to 
use a certain task model.
For now, there is no way use any task name. Two parameters only allow to 
tune task management for a list:
- remind_task : defines which define.xx task model will be used
- expire_task: defines which expire.xx task model will be used.

So, if you create your own remind.myVersion task model file and use the 
parameter
remind_task      myVersion
in your config file, this task model will be used.
The problem is : if you use the task model named "remind" for your 
personnal purpose, you can't use it for its original aim.

This what I have understood so far. I guess this requires to be dug deeper.

Regards,
