Well, it has two catches in it. There is a header line in the emails that retains the postid number. And then in the subject line of the email is the postid number. The one in the header isn't working as solid as I'd like. It doesn't always correctly grab the parentid for hybrid and threaded modes. Once it's solid I'll remove the postid from the subject lines of the emails. If there is no postid in the header or subject line, it considers the post a newthread and processes it as such

This let's people send fresh emails to the mailbox to start new threads

I think you've done a great job and overall I'm impressed with the support and community interaction.
I'm wondering if this mod covers forums where moderation is required.
Currently if you have the email notification on under forums and moderation, regardless of whether it requires moderation or not as soon as the thread is posted those in the notification section are notified.
Does your hack comply to moderation rules. Meaning if a post is added to a activated room, where moderation is required will users be notified after or before the thread is moderated?
Thanks.

It currently does not take into account moderation. This is another reason why I agreed with moving this to a beta mod.
I need to do some reading and studying on the moderation system to determine how the system does that. It might be something simple, or complex, not sure yet
Also, I want to figure out the forumpassword stuff. I want to come up with a system so that forums that have a password can process emails. I'm not yet sure how I'm going to do that without it being very inconvienant for the user.
I really do have full intentions of completeing and finishing out this modification. This is one of the things that I personally feel that vbulletin is truly lacking to be competitive.
The issue is that I have 3 large projects that have to be completed before I can continue on this
