Message-ID: <1046689145.1223.7.camel@MattGerg> (raw)

I have two tables, users and options.  The common element between the
tables is "username".  I want to select the "email" from "user" but only
if the "mailing_list" option is set to true in the "options" table.

Here are the tables:

select username, email from users;
   username    |             email
---------------+--------------------------------
 joe           | joe@yahoo.com
 heidi         | heidi@localhost
 payday        | brant@localhost
 fake          | fake@localhost
 mattgerg      | mattgerg@users.sourceforge.net
 god           | god@heaven.org

select username, mailing_list from options;
   username    | mailing_list
---------------+--------------
 payday        | t
 god           | t
 fake          | t
 mattgerg      | t


I want to write a query that will return the emails of only the users
payday, god, fake, and mattgerg.

Is this at all possible?  I am new to sql, and I am having trouble.
