[Tralala]

Okay, so I set up a new mailbox on my server and confirmed that I could email to it, as well as check it. (BTW, a good free web tool to confirm this is Mail2Web.)

I know my email hoster supports POP3 and IMAP because I have set up regular email accounts and clients using both over the years.

But, with this hack, I chose POP3, and then just ran the cron job manually and got this error:

• Fatal error: Call to undefined function: imap_open() in
  /*****/includes/cron/emailintegration.php on line 70

I was afraid that might happen.

Sure enough, I looked in there and didn't see anything listed about "imap."

Just wondering, is enabling IMAP support necessary even if we've chosen POP3 in the Forum Manager prefs? I ask this because getting my webhoster to do anything, even as simple as enabling the line for imap support, is often an uphill battle.
