evey user that i attempt to use this on is reported as a "protected usergroup"

Ok, I just had another bounce sent to me after I made the changes above.....

EZ-Bounce information or actions didn't seem to happen for this one either... :confused:

Anything else you could suggets, or should I just un-install this mod?

I like v1.09 of "Inactive Mail". It works well and really makes a difference on my system keeping folks coming back after 90 days.

Thanks for your help.... :up:

That's most likely due to your usergroup ids not being default. To fix this, you'll need to edit the protected usergroups in your Ezbounce.php file. By default, 5,6,7 is Admins, Supermods, and Mods...

Find this:
if (is_member_of($buser['usergroupid'], 5,6,7))

And replace 5,6,7 with your protected usergroup ids.




Please be more descriptive as to what "didn't seem to happen" means.

My EZbounce.php says:

if (is_member_of($buser['usergroupid'], 5,6,7))

Which are the groups for my Admin, Senior Moderator and Moderator groups.

To clarify what is happening, I'm getting sent to me as the web site administrator, the standard ISP "bounced email". The one that encapsulates the original email sent to the member and its content says:

I can't find anywhere any of the information, links or screens that look like the ones in the mod here, that indicate the mod is working for me.

Thank you for your efforts... :up:

I have both these mods working well and interacting together nicely on my forum.

It may be a function of either your mail server or your email client. Try looking at "Properties" of those emails to get the headers - you may need to open the returned email as an attachment instead or in addition but the main thing is you need to get to the email headers.

If that's not working for you, try setting the option to include the EZ Bounce link in the body (at the bottom) of the email.

that did the trick. thanks :) :up:

Well, I wouldn't understand what I'm looking for under my email server, but I did turn ON the option you suggested. Now I'll wait for another "bounce" and see what happens.

Thanks ... :up:

try sending an email from your admincp to vcu49834fd@hotmail.com or any totally for certain email that will bounce. That should allow you to test.

That's a good idea ... :up:

I'll try that later today and let you know... :)

Ok, I changed the method of operation to put the EZ-Bounce link at the bottom of the text of emails being sent out, as opposed to being imbedded elsewhere.

I tried that and sent a test user a "password reminder" email from the AdminCP user area. Of course the email bounced and at the bottom of the original email sent back to me was a link reference from EZ-Bounce. I clicked on that and it took me to a screen in the AdminCP.

I asked it to manage user and it did something, then returned to a "blank" AdminCP user screen with no data filled in. I presume it sent the test user an email and removed his checkmarks for receiving email etc.

This morning, I received a bounce from the v1.09 Inactive email mod, that sends emails out to inactive members. I checked at the bottom of that email and NO EZ-Bounce link appeared, or in the header. I guess there's some kind of incompatibility (even after I used djbaxter's extra hack) as it relates specifically to my system and the two mods.

On its own EZ-bounce works fine with any emails sent out by me manually from the AdminCP.

Thanks
