simple opt-in script?

I'm looking for a most simple but save opt-in mailing list script in
php (linux Apache CGI, but shouldn't matter)

best:

* all in one single .php file; different functions by input vars /
passwords; config vars on top of script

* uses MySQL or a plain file (still no doubles) next to the .php
(best both options)

* double opt-in not necessary but nice

* good would be "default topic" and at least up to 5 different lists/topic

* takes directly my web forms like email=...&listn ame=...&sign=in ;
repsonse page can be very simple.

* I can read out the lists plain formatted also by web through the same
..php & password like: cmd=getlist&lis tname=...&passw ord=...

* hopefully no extreme installation tricks (thus php4, ..)
looking at more than 10x google'd ones, always something was wrong, big
or jerky or not as is should be... Thus I'm asking here.
Does somebody have a pointer?

Robert,

I use mailman and dada mail. They aren't all one script - but quite frankly, I
wouldn't want them to be. I much prefer to load only what I need at the time I
need it, and not a lot of extra garbage.

Mailman / dada are full blown packages needing a complex installation.

I'm looking for a simple PHP script which can be installed by just
simple FTP on simple web accounts. Just requiring PHP and maybe
'/usr/sbin/sendmail -i -t'

Robert,

Yes, they are full blown packages. And I've found them to be quite easy to set
up. They take maybe 15-20 minutes; possibly 30 the first time around.

And they are worth the time in doing it.

Hi - I'm trying to use ZODB but I'm having trouble getting started. Can anyone point me at a very simple example ?

I've also read 'Introduction to the Zope Object Database'...
