Unfortunately, I'm still getting the same errors with the new vbemailreply.php

The e-mail test account that I've created for you is still active..

Do you have PHP compiled with the IMAP module? You may need to judging from those errors. I could be wrong.

Yes, my PHP has been compiled with IMAP.

Great hacks m8

wow, i've been waiting for this, who's got it working thus far?

I've updated the vbemailreply_install.php and the vbmailreply.php

Ming Keong: I assume you tried with IMAP? I've fixed that as well now. On my board with your data, both IMAP and POP3 work.

you might also want to uninstall and reinstall the hack, as the settings weren't showing correctly.

Iam sorry, but actually I dont understand how it works exactly. Could somebody be so kind to explain it in "baby-words" to me :shy: (not the installation ;) ).

Your users (the ones that have it turned on) get a notification when new posts are posted. This hack allows them to reply to that notification by email and to insert a post by email. This means they don't have to visit the board, which is good if
-you're at work and aren't allowed in the internet,
-you don't want everything marked read because you just have time to answer that one post
-(I'll think of more ;))

Are you looking for more technicall details?

The mail server part is working now. Thanks Colin! You've been a great help!

However, like Sanity, and I believe a couple of other users as well, I do not really understand how exactly this hack will work.

I've subscribed to a test thread and replied to it from another user. A notification was received via e-mail. I replied to this e-mail, changing the target e-mail to the e-mail address that the script will process.

The script processed the mail and I received the following error message via e-mail:

All the fields are empty.

Is there a specific format that a e-mail must have before it is recognized by the script? For example, where do I place my password? How do I identify my userid? How do I identify the thread I'm replying to? Is it via the title name? Or do I need to enter the threadid manually somewhere?

OK, basically I understand what its good for and it sounds great to me. If there are some problems I'll come back ;)
