Attached.

This has been working very well for me on my forums for a number of months.

Documentation?
The normal stuff:
- upload the file
- import the product
- edit the "Bounced Email Handler" configuration options
- -These are mine:
Quote:

Alert PM Sender: 1
Bounce Count: 5
IMAP Host: imap.gmail.com
IMAP Port: 993
IMAP Mailbox: inbox
IMAP Second Mailbox: [Gmail]/Spam
IMAP Username: bounce@yourdomain.com
IMAP Password" ...
Use SSL: Yes
Max Fetched Messages: 25
- test it

The second email address is for Gmails SPAM folder, where a lot of these bounces end up.

Let me know if you have any questions or problems. I'd like to release it as a full mod. If you want to make improvements: cool, let me know. There are a few areas that could obviously be improved upon.

Cheers

I'd be happy if you could send this to me also. Great idea for a mod.

Can you explain how this works?

rebelde 03-24-2014 05:45 PM

How does it work?

If I remember correctly:
1. Bounced emails are collected using a special email address.
2. Those emails are loaded into the database.
3. If there are more than 5(?) bounces from a certain email address, the user account is:
3a. no longer sent emails
3b. sent a PM explaining this and how to get the emails to get sent again.
4. There is a way for users to tell the system to still send the emails despite the number of bounces.

Thanks, I think i understand now. I was looking more to see how it does this, not what it does but I see now.

Is there any way to disable it from sending out private messages?

Thanks,
Rich

Some type of a log would be good also to see what it is actually doing. :)
Great though!

Yes, edit the PHP code :D.

The PM notifications are actually quite useful. It is a bit annoying that it comes from the admin's account, but many people see the PM and change their email address to one that works.

I'll try to clean this up some and create a real add-on soon.

No problem, I will remove the pm.

My concern isn't that it comes from the admin. I just have a ton of bounced e-mails going back years and I do not want thousands of private messages going out at the same time.

This is great though! Thanks
