here is a copy of my working cron (in the cron folder)

everything is just fine. The problem that I am now facing, the cron is not deleting the mail from server after retrieving it, therefore the same email is retrieved over and over.

I just found out that setting was also missing

99% working on vb 3.60

only the 'empty folder delete' bug left to squash and the faq (which is nothing)

I am not clear which cron is doing the job, the one at root or the one at the cron folder, and I don't care to find out as the job is being done as designed by filburt.

I did the whole thing manually.

If I can get a couple of you guys to signup at my site and beat it up so I am 100% sure it works, then I will release step by step instructions of what I did plus my sql and modified files plus a couple templates I changed to accomodate the php changes. Hopefully for the rest of you, someone else will take over and pack it into a product (personally I don't see the need to do so as this is independent from any vb files)

Anyway, a big thank you to filburt for releasing this. It will be a welcome addition to my site.

just send me a PM for a link

P.S. I will hold from installing any other hacks for the next two days, as it will be easier for me to retrieve the last queries from the database.

There is also a minor bug in the groups permissions. For some reasons you must save it twice for the changes to take effect.

Very happy to see that you were able to turn it into a stable product.

The 1x1 GIF should be a clear GIF in your forums' root folder, IIRC.

vbms_expunge controls whether mail is deleted or not once downloaded, which would explain your duplicates.

I am now adding the various who's online locations as plugins

Lionel, thanks for all the help ;)

Please don't PM me and offer me money to install for you. Hack belongs to filburt. If you want it badly, register at my site and test it out so I am sure it's bug free, then I will post instructions for all.

Moreover, it's against the licensing terms I clearly put forth in the first post for him to sell you the product. Do not request it from him for pay.

If you want it so badly, offer to test it and help him bundle it into an installable package so the whole community can view it.

Thanks for finishing the addon!

So what is the URL of your site? I really would like to take a look.
