Group subscription via email
January 18, 2011, 02:54:12 pm
We have seen a few users become enrolled in non public groups where it says

"Added (by email)"

To our knowledge none of the profiles or email messages are configured with subscribe links or setup to add users to a group.

Can someone explain what the "Added (by email)" actually means.

I scanned the 3.2.3 code and did not find that exact text.

Thanks

dave:

check:

CRM/Contact/BAO/GroupContact.php, function addContactsToGroup (parameter $method)

and

CRM/Mailing/Event/BAO/Subscribe.php, function &subscribe (end of function it calls above function with $method = 'Email')

This in turn is called by:

api/Mailer.php, function crm_mailer_event_subscribe

which is basically invoked when the mailing systems gets an email (or web request) of the form

 subscribe.GROUPID@... (or something like that)
