I've gotten alot of support for this mod so I feel like I owe it to ya guys to let you know where I'm at. Sides... hopefully it'll moisten your lips!
So after I made that hurdle, it pretty much snowballed to a few more
This is the current status of 2.4 including bugs fixed, new features and still want to accomplish before release.
Bugs Fixed:- Parent IDs are correctly associated so this mod works completely with threaded and hybrid view thread modes.
- Double encoding of attachments is fixed.
- The "reply via forum" link is fixed. No more missing postids.
New Features (Some address and resolve previous bugs):- Email subject lines are cleaned up. They will now appear as "[Forum Name] Subject of Thread". The threadid, postid and parentids are all controlled through the email header "Message ID" field.
- Admin option to "dismiss attachments". Admins can now choose to allow attachments, disallow attachments and send an errror, or disallow attachments and permit the post to still be processed.
- Emails have been reformated with a "reply box" this has significantly cleaned up the forum messages and made the emails to the users MUCH cleaner!! I'm most excited about this

- User selectable HTML or Plain Text format for emails!!
MUST DO!:
These are the things I MUST do before I even think about a release..
- Option for Admin to override user optional html/plain text. (DONE!)
- Confirm and address possible bug when this hack is used with "event forums" modification. (tested and found no issues, will have to examine the case that reported an issue)
- Review "table bbcode" mod and resolve issues if they are caused by this modification. (this like glow and shadow doesn't parse) (Not sure I'd classify it as a bug as much as an unsupported feature... at this time
the future can change)
- Create a mistake catcher for if the ei_folder field is blank it'll default to INBOX - (DONE!)
- Get the script to work with pulling emails from gmail - (DONE!)
- add an error message in user manager when auto subscribe is turned on, but no forumids are specified (DONE!)
- add an admin option to use new format (reply box) or old format for emails - (DONE!)
Would like to do before release of 2.4:- vbmail integration (this is the one I want to really really get done, but I'm uncertain of being able to accomplish.. have dumped alot of time on this with little to no luck so far
)
- better way of handling thread prefix mod, try to eliminate need to comment out in the file and want to add the prefix to the email subject line
- attachment file edits - want to try to remove these and take them to plugins (DONE!)
- admin options to disallow, or allow crossposting
- Review the interaction with subscribe forum and subscribe thread in an email integrated forum
I'm sure there is something I'm forgetting....
What do I need?
TESTERS!!! I have NO testers right now and I really want to be certain that the regex work for posts
Please PM me if you would like to be a tester!
Thank you all for your support!
Now I'm off to stumble to bed
