So we have a massive interest in a mod for a mailing-list like behaviour of e-mail notifications.

What is the current status quo?

I would be willing to pay also for this mod, I am sure others too.

If you just take the list out of this thread so far, who said they want to have this mod and all those people contribute, it must be easy to finance, right?

So look to the quotes a attached, so you know who could be a co-financer of this mod:

We moved from Yahoo! groups as well and the only nit-pik my users have is the fact they don't get an email of their own posts even to subscribed threads. They originally missed the 'ease' of posting by email as well but they got over it :wink:

Is that possible with this?

I actualy have a working alpha script that interacts with the forums just like yahoo groups.

The email posts look like crap, and I'm currently working on the preg matches to clean that up. But I'm in the alpha already.

Perhaps we should get together and see what we can come up with?

I've got the email catch working, cron job runs every 10 minutes.

For forums that are enabled for the email integration and that a user has subscribed to when a new thread or new post is posted from the forums, an email is sent.

From email, a user can post a new thread, or replies to one of the emails they receive.

When the cron runs every 10 minutes, it'll grab those emails post them, and email the user the post just as if it had been posted from the forum.

Completely interacting just like yahoogroups

Just gotta clean up the install and stuff so a noob can install it, and clean up the emails a TON. Damn line breaks are driving me nutz on that

1. switch their current forum subscriptions to Instant Email. (we've installed the mod, and it works well.)

2. easily subcribe current users to all (or some, as dictated by the Admin) forums to receive Instant Email Notification

3 And if there was a way for new users to automatically be defaulted to Instant Email Notification for all (or some, as dictated by the Admin) forums.

Has anyone fully, or partly, solved these yet?

Thanks.
