it's ok but ive never managed to get it working with my pop email

Is there anyway that I could hide the Pre-Set The Server Name and then Hide it from the User?

I think someone else or possibly myself posted the way to do this in this thread.

Has anyone figure out the "Page cannot be diplayed" cookie issue?

forums/email.php?CMD=cookie

------------------PROBLEM 1-----------------------------------
Scipt error when using select all checkbox to delete all messages.

Line: 543
Char: 3
Error: 'document.forms.0.allemaal.checked' is null or not an object
Code: 0

What do I need to do to fix this?

----------------PROBLEM 2------------------------------------

Also, I was able to access the email.php page successfully when I was logged in as an admin. I logged to the forum with a registered member account that I set up and got the standard forum permssion error:

"..., you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons..."

What do I need to edit to allow all registered users to access the page?

-Thanks

Read the instructions in the first post.

Thanks Erwin,

The 2nd prob was an oversight on my part. The registed user acct that I logged into was under a new usergroup that I created. I had forgotten to add it to the list.

- Sorry about that -

I'm still having problems with the script error, though.

Do you have any idea what may be causing that to occur?

None. I use the same code on my site and it works. Possibly conflict with javascript from another hack.

That's very likely. I've added quite a few mods.

~ Thanks ~

Erwin, it's me again...

I sent an e-mail using a member account I created that is not allowed to edit the "from" field. The compose page properly showed the un-editable from e-mail address. However, when I checked the e-mail account that I sent it to, it had the following:

From: World Wide Web Owner <www@xxxx.sxxxxxxes.net>

Why does it not show the from e-mail address for the user and why is it showing my website address?

I haven't made any modifications to the code except to the permissions.

I need a test site :p I found one that has this installed, but I don't know what to put in the field server: I want it to use my e-mail address from myhost.com/webmail Any thoughts on this?

ok, I keep getting that fatal error thing because I don't have imap on my php

Is their a site where I can download it at?

Thanks

Installation went perfectly. I credit the author's great install instructions. :)

Interesting... there is a fix for this posted somewhere in this thread. See if you can find it. The fix may be in the vB2 version as well. I thought I had addressed this in the latest version.

Hopefully this is the last time this fix will have to be posted.

1. Go into your Windows folder on your server. For example, mine is located at C:\Windows
2. Open PHP.ini
3. Under the Dynamic Extensions, find ;extension=php_imap.dll
4. Remove the ; (semi-colon) from in front of it, making it extension=php_imap.dll
5. Save the file and restart your web site for the changes to take effect (optional but recommended).

P.S. If you don't have your own server and your host won't give you root access, you're screwed!

I still have this problem also even though I've tried the fixes in the thread, doomed to be without this hack I think :(

I was unable to find the fix. I redownload/uploaded the email.php file and it now uses the correct "FROM" info. I guess the previous download was corrupt. Still have the script error with select all option, but I can fix that myself.

Great job, Erwin. :up:

Installed with no errors.

I do have a few problems.

The "check all" box doesn't check all the check boxes, and it's not sending the mail, although I am getting the confirmation.

Great hack my friend...can someone tell me one thing...I seem to remember a screen that shows logging in...please wait.....

And then when logging out another screen that shows logging out...please wait...

Right now, all I have when I logout is this - michael@xtremeoff-road.com and then it says "You Have Been Logged Out" Is that the way it should be?

Does this make sense at all???

Mike

This hack is about as usefull as litghter for a smoker!
After registration they can even fetch mail from the just anywhere with your hack to confirm their registration!!!!!

Best Greatings from Berlin and thanks very mutch

I wasn't able to fix the script error with the select all "From" checkbox. Here's the error in Internet Explorer:

Line: 977
Char: 3
Error: 'document.forms.0.allemaal.checked' is not null or not an object
Code: 0

Does anyone have any idea how to fix this?

That IS what you should get. I think it's a nice touch.

I'll take a look when I find time. :) Never noticed it.

~ Thanks ~

ok cool, just making sure...I thought it said something different before

Thanks!

Mike

First off I must say great job Erwin! However I've noticed a rather large problem. When you view html-based email it for some odd reason changes the forum page background to the page attributes coded in the email.

Any ideas? Thanks.

Thank you very much this is working great, also the navbar add is OK :)

firstly, it is a great mod!

but seem to be running into a small problem

my pop username is "user+domain.com@domain.com"

when i send a mail from email.php, it goes ok, but the recipient sees no sender ("sender unspecified")... what is a workaround for this?

one possible solution::: vbulletin itself sends mails with well-formed From: addresses. wonder if that module can be used to send a mail ?

ndahiya

Err, ok, i?ll try to post with my little knowledge in using english, ?cause it?s about some years ago when i learned it in school ;)
anyway, first of all, big thx for this "hack", it?s working fine so far at my vbb, except the problem ndahiya mentioned at last in this thread.

what about an additional input field to set the desired email-address and show it instead of the server?s name? didn?t tried it so far, but think it couldn?t be that kind of work, could it?

well, the reason for which i do this post is another:
i did a little work on the email.php and translated all shown texts into german. for there was a little [in german it is: "Meinungsverschiedenheit" ;) ] for the german translation of the v3arcade-hack, i decided to myself to post it at vb.org at first and than ask if it is ok to post it on the vbulletin-germany-board.

there for i?ve got another question about the code:
how do i get the send-date formatted in german to the "reply"-page?
for example there is actually shown:"On Tue, 26 Oct 2004 11:27:19 <email-sender> wrote:"
but i?d like to see there something like this:" Am Die, 26.Okt 2004 11:27:19 schrieb <email-sender>"
Would be fine, if someone could give some help to this, ?cause it?s the last thing that is not shown in german.

Thx,
and Greetz,
from SamJo ;)


[German translated email.php attached]

unbelievable :D I clicked the virtuell "install"-Button In

Meinungsverschiedenheit = variance of opinion or difference in opinions or disagreement :rolleyes:

Has anyone mentioned a fix for receiving mail from "unknown sender"?

Everything else is working great, however when I send a message to another of my email accounts during testing I get:

From - unknown sender

and when I try to "Reply to" the address field is blank - I have to manually enter the email address.

Checked through all four pages and haven't seen anything yet.....unless I'm blind

Any help would be appreciated.

Wow, so many replies. :) I've been extremely busy - if I have time I'll look into it.

Setting a default email address as a reply is fairly simple to do by just adding that variable as a hidden input. I've been busy with my own site recently, doing 2 migrations in a short period of time - I will look into this when I find the time. :)

just wish there was a address book with it!

great mod..for admins

<installed>

I get the error
any ideas?

Read the first post - you need IMAP compiled with PHP.

Hi all,

I've got a bit of an odd problem... just installed the hack with our own highly-modified 3.0.3. I've added the user profile fields and modded the form as per the instructions - no problems.

When I go to login, IMAP works fine. Loads the folders, shows messages etc - great :)

However, when I try to login to a POP3 server (I've tried a couple now), it fails and my PHP error log shows:
[18-Nov-2004 21:36:11] PHP Warning: imap_open(): Couldn't open stream {mail.domain.com:110/pop3}INBOX in /path/vbb/email.php on line 699

Any ideas? We're on PHP 4.3.8, hosted by Rackspace. If you have any suggestions, I'd greatly appreciate your help :)

Cheers,

HB

Is port 110 open or blocked by your firewall?

It seems to be open, I just tried logging in to my POP3 server via Telnet from the webserver and there are no issues there :)

Thanks,

HB

I get
After that it redirects me to the login-form and displays the message:
But my login informations ARE correct. :(

good news that Gmail now support POP3
but my server could never been compared to Google's T_T
