I'm afraid you are in the same boat as the rest of us until the developer can figure out a work around for this problem. :(

All these things are oke but it doen't work

What DOES this mod do, because it sure doesn't send emails or anything remotely close to what it says it can do. Three days and 3 pages of complaints ranging from "only sends out text as html" to "sends nothing". WOW, this is the best mod ever! Thanks, where do I vote for MOTM?
:rolleyes:

I'm clicking Uninstall, I'm so done with this pile of steaming nonsense. Someone should pull the plug on this one, because its a gonner'.

Correction: Three days over a holiday weekend.

But thanks for sharing. :D

Even tho it sent out the mails as html, I am still getting people coming back, so it gets a thumbs up from me, just hope some of this other stuff gets sorted out, good job, thanks Chris... Mike.

Having read through most of the posts for this mod, it does seem this is not as straight forward as it seems. I installed this yesterday and got the same results an many other people who posted.

It logs the email as being send the schedual task log, it show them as sending if this is run manually - the problem is it does not send the emails.

Does this require the SMTP option to be configured, or can this work using the normal PHP methods.

I am trying to get this to work on 3.6.5 and dont have SMTP configured with in VB options.

I would if anybody knows the exact config of any users who got it working.

I wounder if this depends on the forum name as it uses the name as part of the FROM address.

Any ideas, I would like to help in getting this one sorted out, as this is an automatic way of keeping my forums alive.

The problem is the use of the vBulletin mail system, not whether it's SMTP or PHP. Earlier versions actually worked very well. Someone suggested using the vBulletin mail-system and it seems in switching to that something went awry.

Chris, perhaps as a temporary fix, you could repost version 1.09 as a an optional download?

Hi,

Awsome mod!

One issue i'm having though. I've set the amount of emails at 2 but it keeps on mailing to inactive accounts. now some people get it like 10 times already and they want to report me to spam protection sites :(...

What's wrong and how can i make sure it only emails the reminder like 2 times and then never again.

I installed this mod like as directed by the instructions, I have set the following options as:

Bu when I go to schedule tasks and click run on the Inactive Email reminder task I get:
-------------------
Found 0 Inactive users

Done
------------------

I have over a thousand members and it found 0 ?

Please can you help

Thanks

You can't.

Set "Days of Inactivity" to something reasonable, like 30 minimum - 60 or 90 better.

Set "Frequency" to something reasonable, like 30 minimum. This isn't the number of emails to send out - this is the number of days to wait before sending out another "nag". You have it set to nag your members every 2 days - no wonder they're getting annoyed.

Answered in PM. The problem is, I think, the switch to the vBulletin mail system in version 1.10. I understand that the author is working on this.

See my post above where I've suggested he make version 1.09 (which worked well) available for download until the fix is determined.
