Hello.

It is working with the example you posted in your readme file.

However, I have tried, unsuccessfully, to install this newsgroup.

Group: alt.music.pearl-jam

server: group.google.com

This does not work for some reason.

Is there something wrong with these two entries? :ermm:

Again, sorry for these questions.

I have uploaded the "Advanced_gateway_hacking_guide.txt".
The guide only contains the method to hide the big Reply button.

Go to the first page to download.

group.google.com does not even resolve DNS.

You need to find out what is the news server your host lets you use, or pay for one. They are very cheap anyway, do a search in this thread for ones to use.

I don't understand. Does this hack allow me to use alt.music.pearl-jam from google but i need to find another server or what do you mean? Does anyone know or use a google newsgroup? If there's any kind soul who can give me a tipp on which news server supports google newsgroups like e.g. alt.music.xx, please give this poor woman some hints. I'd be forever in your debt. :)

Thank you :)

PS: I'd also gladly pay for a news server. The only thing that I really need to know is whether I could then use google's alt.music.xxx newsgroup to display in my forums?
I've seen google's newsgroup mentioned in this thread once and in the old hack thread also. So I assume this must be working?

It's been a while since I used this ... please verify.
If is_running is set to 1 it WILL CHECK if another instance is running?

If you see AW (what language?) as a common reply prefix, you you simply add AW: to the existing re: fw: line in gateway.php. That will be easy to hack.

No, they were delivered to the mailbox but were not collected until after I upgraded.

But I did have the cache issue at that time as I could not see the option in the admincp to turn threading on. So most likely it was actually turned off. Seems to work now as you seen.

Regarding the parsing for the "Re:" I saw once instance of non threading

Post http://proteluser.com/bbs3/showthread.php?t=2262 has had the "Re:" placed after the mailing list name between the []'s, I cannot even guess how that happened but i suspect it was down to the authors email client.

I guess the Re: has to be the first characters in the string to work?

lierduh,

Could you implement something in the next version that will log the actual ip into the post as poster ip instead of the email addy (in a mailing list setup) ?

I'm also having alot of work merging replies to excisting threads, for some reason alot of the emails aren't glued together in the correct thread. I would apreciate it if it can be improved.

regards

Google does not own USENET. Google only archive them, that it, no more, no less.

What is USENET?
http://www.faqs.org/faqs/usenet/what-is/part1/

or a short version

Perhaps reading a couple of pages back can help.
