I'm looking for a way that users can email into the forum and this will create a new thread. My forum site is internal to my company so there's no outside access and no spam risks associated to that.

The only mod I've been able to find for this is lierduh's NNTP Gateway (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=65152&page=67). This sounds like it's exactly what I'm looking for but it was designed for 3.0.5 and I'm doubtful it'll work in the current version. Are there any recent mods that do the same thing or something similar?

I found a newer version of the NNTP Gateway software in a different thread which looks like it will do what I need.

Hey srupnow,

Does it work on vb 4.1.x ?

Kind regards
Jabir

With a fair amount of work, I was able to get it working on 4.1.x. It required following the instructions very closely and then 2 code changes which I didn't document.
