Again, i reply to myself.

I've tried to read /usr/share/sympa/lib/Sympa/Message/Plugin/FixEncoding.pm,
the only example available, but seems rather obscure to me (but, clearly,
i don't know perl decently...).

Seems to me that:

a) i need a module called 
/usr/share/sympa/lib/Sympa/Message/Plugin/Newsgate.pm

b) where exist a package called:
        package Sympa::Message::Plugin::Newsgate;

c) where there's a function/sub that have to be called 'pre_distribute'

d) the third 'variable' passed to that function is the message, coded using
 the internal format, depicted in 'man Sympa::Message'.


e) Ok, done that i need to translate listname into newsgroup name; i have a
 file for that, i can do simple regexp in perl, but i've not clear how to
get the listname. Sympa::Message speaks about 'context' but really i've not
understood what mean...

f) eventually done that, i need to pipe message (raw message) to my gateway
 script; seems i need to use $message->dump() but really i've not understood
how.


Someone can help me?! Thanks. ;-)
