sympa-close(1)

✨ NAME ✨

okay so bestie, say hi to sympa-close 💅 — the little command that closes a mailing list, or closes every list that belongs to a whole family. it's giving "doors closed, lights off, bye" energy 🚪💤

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

the way you call it, literally verbatim:

"sympa close" [ "--mode=purge" ] list["@"domain]
"sympa close" family"@@"domain

yes, those quotes are supposed to be there, don't come for me 😭 copy it exactly, periodt.

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

It closes list(s). that's the whole vibe check. 🫶

• If you point it at a list, it closes that list.
• And if you also pass --mode=purge, it doesn't just close the list — it removes the list entirely. no cap, gone gone. 💀✨
• If you point it at a family instead, it tries to close all the lists belonging to it. all of them. the whole friend group. 👑

heads up: --mode=purge is the "not coming back" mode, so pls be sure before you send it. 🙈
