Tried this last suggestion, not working. What I do notice is that is does not appear to be recognizing the connection type and instead keeps trying to connect via standard POP3 even if it is set to something else in the forum.

Update to last post. Yup, you are calling the wrong variable when setting up the $connectmailserver statement. It should be ei_connectiontype.

checking :)

Still doesn't fix the overall problem though.

Please try the new uploaded zip.

You were correct. The reason most were not experiencing it is that the field defaults to 0 and most people will not need to change their settings from pop3.

Already changed it here, but it still doesn't stop the failed stream error no matter what it's set to.

I'll have to see your settings to figure out what the modification is doing wrong :(

I can't guess at what your settings are unfortunately :(

Can you send me a login via pm?

Update: since the 1.5 fix, it correctly recognizes connection types. On my home site, I have 4 forums enabled, when I change the connection type for one of them I get the errors. I would suggest running a global query something like

update forum set ei_active = 0;

and then go back and edit one forum and play with it's connection type, my guess is you may have accidently turned on a second forum as active

in future versions I'll code in a die loop so if it gets that error it'll like send an email to the admin or something, *shrug* I'll figure something out :)

update to my issue (i selected IMAP, but it was using the settings for POP3)

the only way I could fix it was to actually go into the emailintegration php file and make it so POP3 settings used IMAP settings instead...then it worked fine. And I want to stress that my forum was set to use IMAP.

vocoder, please try the file from the new zip version 1.5

There was an error in the cron file that was not correctly viewing peoples connection types :(

Hmm, well, it looks like needing the imap extension is going to stop me from using this. I do run on a vps, but php was not compiled with the imap extension and php.net is telling me I have to have other software to support it before compiling php with it. I do have some users that have internet blocked at work that this could be useful for, but being unsure how many people would use it, I don't think I want to risk the downtime.
