[Mageia-sysadm] Email change replication between identity and sympa

Thu Sep 20 08:37:31 CEST 2012

Hi Robert,
+
+i tried to make me an overview on this topic.
+
+In my opnion, the problem is that the identity page and sympa a bon to the same ldap. So changing your email address on identity does not change it in sympa, indeed it just makes a new identity available. Cause sympa does not rewrite or forget your old subscription bonding. It is just a new account. Only way as i see it, would bonding to an user id on both sides. 
+
+
+Kind regards
+

+>Hi, I recently came across this:

+- we need to find a solution so that email changed on identity.mageia.org is automatically changed on sympa mailing lists. This require making some changes to identity and/or sympa. 
+>Has this issue been resolved? If not, I feel I may be able to resolve it; it would most likely require some level of
+ access to the databases holding the email information, but I feel it would be pretty 
+trivial to setup some sort of trigger which will update sympa if identity.mageia.org
+ is updated (and vice versa?).
