i run a linux server how do i enable this or is it okay to proceed with out it???

and also i get this error

The following phrases exist and may result in alternate text being displayed in vBMS pages: method, warning, and warning

You can ignore the second warning. The first one means that the IMAP libraries are not installed in PHP, and so PHP cannot access mail accounts. To enable it, edit php.ini and uncomment the line "extension=php_imap.dll", then restart your web server.

No, this is strictly internal.

Seems to send ok but not receive !

The mail account that vBMS checks needs to be the "catch-all" mail account on your server. That means you need to set it up on your web host so that any mail sent to arghsiblah@yoursite.com (really, any address that doesn't exist) will forward to vbms@yoursite.com (or whatever your catch-all account is), and then have vbms check the vbms@yoursite.com address for any incoming mail. I can't give you directions for how to do this, it's different with every web host. Then, if it still doesn't receive mail, first check the catch-all account to see if it's actually receiving mails, then check the "Mail Checking Logs" in the ACP to see if vBMS is picking up the ones that are coming in. You should be able to figure out where the problem is occurring in there.

Very possibly; I haven't gotten a chance to take the time to look at what it does to the server load. However, by not giving POP3 access (for Outlook EXpress, etc.), you're keeping your users on your site more rather than letting them be freeloading off of you.

where can i turn phpimap on

please give me the whereabouts in my ftp :)

i run linux :D


EDIT how much is the full version of this???

This seems like an awesome hack but will have to have it mature a bit and get some bugs worked out.

Few things need to be identified
Server load
Usergroup issue
Control panel screen shots user & admin
reported bugs

Telnet/SSH into your server, then type "whereis php.ini". Usually it's in /usr/local/lib.
There is no "full version" or "free version" anymore, this is the full version. Filburt1 released it as open-source because he was done developing it, and asked the general community to update it to be compatible with vBulletin 3.6.

Yeah; admins automatically have full rights; after that, you can customize it for each specific usergroup (except banned and unregistered users, neither of those can have email accounts at all ;))

Install script isnot working if you receive any errors i mentioned.

Good point about the stickiness of your site by being internal. When they log in to check their email there is always a chance they'll check the rest of the website out.

Does this inform signed in members of new mail ?

And i have to admit i am concerned on server load as the catchall has to be sorted to send to individual members. How is this achieved ? Does it do it on a cron or when the member checks his or her mail ?

Thanks for the reply .. still no go and I've tested web mail from host cpanel and catch all email does work.
Mail checking logs shows nothing .. "Nothing to do"
Anyone else got this to receive ? I'd be interested to know how you got it to work.

Empty buttons with the package, so we can add our own language etc. (really do not understand that such things are not standard, not only for mod etc, but styles and so on...)

I think I will use this one when it is no longer beta, nice work!
