Introduction

This directory contains the script for generating the UPE mailing list (/etc/postfix/virtual).

Components

• get_users.py retrievs user email data from the Django database.
• parse_emails.py parses the current mailing list from /etc/postfix/virtual.
• union.py is a utility function for merging dictionaries.
• main.py uses the above to merge (find the union of) the two sets of user-email mappings.

In Case Things Go Wrong

Backup Mailing List

Before running the script for the first time (in March 2015), a backup of the existing mailing list was created in /src/upe.berkeley.edu/www/website/mailing_list.txt.bak.
