Hello All,

Regards,

you need to subscribe to a Usenet server service for best results.

Giganews, Usenetserver, etc

you can use your local ISP's but they tend to have little retention. Regardless of which you use, they'll provide you with the proper information.

Hello sdsvtdriver,

Do you know how I can remove those junk user id's.....

Can I use giganes on the forum without any reststrcitions?

Thanks,

What are the recommended settings for a read-only setup, on a mailing list for example?

I'm not sure if this has been discussed before, but I have experienced some problems with Xrefs and messages that has been crossposted. It seems like the importer only looks for the first xref (or something like that) in the header, so if there's crossposts the import stops completely and I have to update the postcount manually for those groups. Is that a known problem or something that only I have seen?

great hack ! thanks

(CUT silly first message about how to get pop3 working)
amazing the difference some sleep makes.

Ok - I know somewhere in this thread is "mbox" but I cannot find it.

I have a 10k message mbox extracted from Yahoo. Is there a way of importing that directly into the system - other than copying the file to a POP3 mail folder and getting via POP3?

Cheers,
Mathew

How do we find out who is our "nntp provider "? Is this something you have to pay for or is there a question I should ask my host to find this out? Something that is setup on my server or what?

I am getting 404 errors when trying to run

gateway.php?debug=1

Any idea why?

thanks

I've waded through the replies in this thread, and I still have a few questions.

We are looking for a hack that allows our members to participate via email. Receive posts via email, make posts via email, and reply to posts via email. We have a email server that has mailing list capabilities, but I'd like to understand more about how this feature works. There is TONS of information on how to interact with usenet via NNTP, but I do not find much information on how to interact with mailing lists and allow our members to treat the vBulletin forums like they do with a Yahoo Groups or other email list based community.

If anyone has implemented this hack in the manner I described above, please reply or send me a PM with some of your experiences.

Thanks
