- - Major Additions - Email Integration (New threads/replies by email) (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=151222)

We have a fairly small forum implementation with less than 100 users. Our forums are all invite only and access is controlled individually through access masks. We've been using this mod since the start of the forum but have recently been experiencing a few problems.

1) Some users are creeping into the notification list who weren't specifically assigned to the forum. This problem is controllable by looking at the data and weeding them out, but it's still curious how that happens.

2) For the past few weeks we had a situation where people who were note in the notification list received forum emails. I've traced the code and manually run all the queries and I can't find any reason at all this would have been happening. Naturally it doesn't happen consistently, but it has happened more than once. Any theories on what's going on there?

I suspect this has been brought up before, but couldn't find anything. When a thread is ut into moderation it still generates an email before the moderation is approved or denied. Can the email be delayed until moderation approval is given?

That should change the connection to the correct port.

No go!. I had to forward all of the emails to a Gmail account in order to get this to work.

Thanks Anyway !!

Users on my site can't access the instant notification, admin can just drop the box down and choose to have instant e-mails, it works for them quite clearly as I have also been dropping in e-mails to the site, however users can't even change the settings???

Cyrix,

Long time! Question, I've been using this for quite a while now. I need the option to turn off the Invalid User Emali error. I have one forum set for unregistered users to post in, however the email -> user check you have setup is blocking this from happening...

Any chance of getting this to work?

My IT administrator informs me that we only have SMTP authentication for sending and receiving. I tried all authentication methods provided with this mod and none of them seem to work.

Is there a work-around that I can use?

Thanks.

Hi Cyricx,

I see in 2.6 there's a new feature to allow users to opt-out of being auto-subscribed. I have enabled this option in the admin CP, but I cannot for the life of me find where this option should appear in the User CP :)

Can you tell me where it should appear, and secondly, let me know if there is any other place in the admin system (other than Email Integration Settings) where I may have to enable this feature.

Thanks

Hi,

If your user community prefers the old email layout but you do not like to see the complete thread in the email, this code limits the included messages to two.

The modification assumes that the following options have been selected:

AdminCP - vBulletin Options - Email Integration Settings:

Use Single From Address
Do you want to use the old layout for emails

You have to fill in these options:

Single From Name
Single From Address

How to modify:

Insert the modification after line 264 in includes/cron/emailintegration.php:

Code:

$mailmessage = preg_replace($pattern, $replace, $mailmessage);

Modification:

Code:

// 20080916 toivo@totaldata.biz: remove all but last message, leave one delimiter

// ei options set: 'use old email layout',  'use single from: address', 'single from name', 'single from address'

$from_str = 'From: ' . $vbulletin->options['ei_single_from_name'] . ' ';

$from_str .= '[mailto:' .$vbulletin->options['ei_single_from_address'] .']';

// remove text inserted by Outlook, possibly other clients

$original_str = '-----Original Message-----';

$underscore_str = '________________________________';

$first_pos = strpos($mailmessage, $from_str);

if ($first_pos !== false) {

        $second_pos = strpos($mailmessage, $from_str, $first_pos + 1);

        if ($second_pos !== false) {

                $mailmessage = substr($mailmessage, 0, $second_pos);

                // remove  last '----- Original Message -----'

                $first_orig_pos = strpos($mailmessage, $original_str);

                if ($first_orig_pos !== false) {

                        $last_orig_pos = strrpos($mailmessage, $original_str);

                        if ($last_orig_pos !== false AND $last_orig_pos !== $first_orig_pos) {

                                $mailmessage = substr_replace($mailmessage, '', $last_orig_pos, strlen($original_str));

                        }

                 } else {

                        $first_us_pos = strpos($mailmessage, $underscore_str);

                        if ($first_us_pos !== false) {

                            $last_us_pos = strrpos($mailmessage, $underscore_str);

                            if ($last_us_pos !== false AND $last_us_pos !== $first_us_pos) {

                                $mailmessage = substr_replace($mailmessage, '', $last_us_pos, strlen($underscore_str));

                            }

                    }

              }

        }

}

// 20080916 end

Hi,

Is there an option for a daily digest of the messages rather than all messages, like on yahoo groups??

If not is there a mod for this??

Kindest Regards,

Tim

I had everything working for several months, then upgraded to vBulletin 3.7.3. Now the posts sent via email aren't appearing in the forum. (They are in the account inboxes, but they're apparently not being picked up.)

I doublechecked everything I could find but don't see any reason why the messages aren't being forwarded. Anybody have an idea what's going on?

Thanks.

Rex Conn
