I'm assuming yes, just hoping the admin of it all makes sense. (I suppose if I'm not checking a mailbox, the cron never runs, so there's never an IMAP error, yes?)

And, can the emails be phrased so I can customize/remove the extra "reply" text (basically, telling folks that they have to log into the forum to respond?)

Thanks again. :up:

Yes it can, you'll just need to disable the scheduled task that runs.

Also, the emails are completely phrased. The two you'll need to fiddle with to customize and remove the reply stuff will be "ei_notify_thread_forum" and "ei_notify_post_forum".

Since you are not going to use the email retrieval side of it you will not need imap.

But I must stress to everyone else that will be using email retrieval... be very careful fiddling with those phrases as the cron job looks for

and

You can also begin a new thread by sending an email to $foruminfo[ei_replyaddress]!

and cuts everything out between that to remove the signatures and the links from emails and posts. If you mess with either of those or remove them, signatures will get duplicated in posts and emails

But Tralala, since your talking about not using that retrieval, you won't experience any side effects from completely chopping up those phrases to your delight
