I have a website that manages charts and lists for the sports league. I am going to add a function that will dynamically create mailing lists for teams within the league. Thus, the team captain could send an email to team-14@site.com , and this letter would be sent to all players on the team. I would not want to reinvent the wheel on this, so I am looking for everything that already exists that can do at least part of the work for me.
1. Is there a webapp that does this?
I am looking for an application with an API that allows me to dynamically create / update / delete mailing lists and send mail to these lists. It should also indicate who / is not allowed to send emails to each list (for example, I want team captains to be able to send emails)
2. If not, what programs / tools can I use to complete this part of the process?
My site runs on LAMP using the Symfony framework. Is there a good mail server and / or mailing list manager that would be easy to work with on my site?
3. Any guidance on pumping your own?
Assuming that I cannot find a lightweight preexisting solution, I will probably have to write most of this. Do you know about any articles / posts / projects that try to do something like this? Any help would be appreciated.
Thank.
