How can I let the user choose the target mailing list on my web form?

What you can do is to create a combo box on the form that lets you choose the target mailing list and then use the "Conditions" button on the "Opt-in" tabs of your mailing lists to check for the presence of the given value in the body of the email sent by the form ("The body contains specific words").

Here's a sample code for the combo box:

       
       <label for="target">Mailing List:</label>
       <select id="target" name="target">
              <option value="list1">List #1</option>
              <option value="list2">List #2</option>
       </select>

This is how the field looks like:

Mailing List:

Note: You can add as many <option> tags as you like.

Let's use the above code as an example. You need two mailing lists to implement the steps below.

Mailing list #1:

  1. Double-click the list icon.
  2. Click the "Opt-in" tab.
  3. Click the "Conditions" button.
  4. Click "Incoming messages that match...".
  5. Turn on "The body contains specific words", and click "words".
  6. Add the following -- target: list1

Mailing list #2: Repeat the steps above but use the following in the last step -- target: list2

IMPORTANT: I forgot to mention that both these lists must download mail from the same email account -- it must be the account the form sends submitted information to.
