Yes I suppose the only security issue would be for the end user and not for the board itself. I have installed this on one of my boards and tested it. It's nice.
I had to have my host compile the IMAP (if that makes sense to you).

But I'd like to play with it more until I install it on my busier board.
Cheers...

Will this hack work with 2.3 ??

What about v3 Beta 4 ??

We are very excited about this ... are there any screenshots or demo pages to see it in action ??

This hack works with 2.3.0 - just upload the file and it will work instantly without any file or template hacking.

Screenshot is in the first post.

It will not work for vB3 until I update it... but it won't be hard to do.

I get this error:

community.singlereel.com/email.php

I get this error:

On this site:

lol, once is enough :)

opps. not my fault. lol. I hit submit once. Sorry about that.

cklaszlo,

Where did you download my hack? Obviously not from this site.

Thank you.

Sorry but I do have 2 licences.

2) (SingleReel) Active (Leased) 13th Sep 2003

And I did download the hack from this site as with all the other hacks. This email hack we wanted to place on our SingleReel Site. Please check or update your records. Thanks.

Maybe I can get help now? :)

You are appearing as licensed now. :) You were appearing as unlicensed before for whatever reason.

Your server needs to have PHP with IMAP compiled. Do it yourself if its dedicated, or ask your host. :)

PHP Info shows IMAP on my server yet I get the IMAP function not defined error.

Configure Command '--with-imap'

IMAP c-Client Version 2001
SSL Support enabled
Kerberos Support enabled

Any ideas?

Thanks

EDIT: After playing with it, it throws this error at line 618 when an invalid user name is put in...Is this a bug?

EDIT: After playing some more, we added the @ to the IMAP function calls at line 618 and the error is no longer thrown, the login screen returns as expected.

if ($opt=="POP3") $mbox = @imap_open("{".$host.":110/pop3}".urldecode($folder), $user, $pass);
elseif ($opt=="IMAP") $mbox =@ imap_open("{".$host."}".$folder, $user, $pass);

Erwin- You always amaze me with your hacks. Good job! :)

Good example of how different servers with different setups need minor changes to the code. The code should work with most servers. For some reason that is beyond my skill, some servers have their own idiosyncrasies. Glad to know it works in the end. :)

My members really like this feature on the forum, thanks for the code!

Once I logon I get http://www.hostname.org/email.php?CMD=cookie. What do you think the problem is? I tried with pop3 accounts.

No problems here..... I love it!!!

That's what you are meant to get. Make sure cookies are switched on, as the program remembers what you are doing via cookies.

I want to install this ! I uploaded the file email.php an wanted to test it.

I get a fatal error when i try to login to my pop mail account.

I have chosen the POP mail radio button and also given the mail server name in the server field.

I get the following error :

Okay, in the above, i have removed the path and added **** . not to confuse.

Thanks for any help.

Cheers

You need IMAP compiled with PHP on your server. Read the first post which warns you about this. :)

Thank you ! I'll do that and get back, if i bump into any problems.

Cheers

Is there any difference between just having IMAP functionality on my server and Compiling IMAP with PHP ??

B'cos, i already have IMAP working, but if compiling IMAP with PHP is whats required, I'll have to do it !

Thanks much

Erwin,

Look at my link and see if it works for you. http://www.ssabmud.org/email.php I cant get it to work for me and I believe I have cookies enabled. Correct me if I'm wrong. Thanks in advance.

PHP needs IMAP compiled.

Or was it intended for someone else? Do I need to have my webmaster compile IMAP? Is that why its is a white screen and goes nowhere? Thanks again.

^^^

Unless you have a dedicated server, your host needs to recompile PHP. The white screen is a different issue. Read this thread for help with that.

Erwin,

I searched and read this whole thread and really don't see anything that would help me. You said to clear cookies and thats about all I found. Hate to sound lost but I am. LOL

Erwin,

Is there anyway you can make this hack based around templates for the main parts of it like the login, the inbox, viewing of emails, attachments, and so forth? I would like to alter the look but editing the PHP file is a pain.

I purposely made the templates integrated in the PHP file so this hack is easy to use with a single file upload.

Feel free to modify it to use templates.

I was hoping you would make a template version, but if I must I shall try. :(

Erwin, I still can't find the answer and I have read the entire thread. I would like to have this hack but if not I guess I will just uninstall it. Thanks for your help.

Erwin:

Great hack. I am playing around with the layout some but I have found that the emails that I get are listed twice. In other words if I get an email and I go to read it the email comes up and then repeats itself in the same listing.

Any ideas?

Parker

I am still getting problems with this script... I just get sent to a "cannot find server" page once I click submit... it is not a IMAP problem, as it is all set up correctly.

Is there any other way to log in? i.e running:

email.php?user=username&host=mail.domain.co.uk&pas s=1234&opt=POP3&submit=Login

Please help :)

I get a "page not found" error too when clicking the login button.

Weird thing is, when I went to bed last night it worked, when I woke up a few hours later, it didn't work. Absolutely NOTHING changed that I have any control over.

Is anyone any closer to finding a solution (or even a cause) for this?

Cheers,

Chris

thanks for this hack :)

IE is showing a blank page but firebird does it without a problem :)

Sorry, but if there are problems, I cannot do much about them, since this hack is very server dependent, and I cannot debug the hack since it is possible that this hack can only work for certain servers. When it does work, it works well. :)

yeah but why does it work with firebird and not with ie ?

Read the first post: You need PHP compiled with the IMAP module for this hack to work

It works with IE for me.

Well I still cannot get past the browser error.....I must be missing something somewhere.
