Hi.

Looking for hints or suggestions on a problem I'm trying to solve.

We have an approval process that revolves around sending emails to a group of people and then collecting back the words "I approve" in reply emails. We are considering adding this to an existing Drupal install.

I looked at using the votingapi module (http://drupal.org/project/votingapi_field), but looks like it's no longer supported.

Users just need to visit a page (custom content type), indicate they approve or disapprove, and later be able to build views indicating everyone's selection.

Is there a better solution than the one I suggested?

Thanks.

Are these people users of your website?

If they don't, and they don't want to bother with keeping a password and an account they don't need, then why bother with Drupal? The current scheme is fine. Just setup a filter in your mail client that channels all those incomming 'I accept's to a seperate folder and use some shell script to extract their names.
