I suspect your host is blowing smoke.. I'm running PHP 5.2.6, MYSQL 5.0.27 and IMAP Server 1.0 with no issues at all.

You don't have to use IMAP though. You can connect with pop3 as well.

Thanks

Database field overlook. Use phpmyadmin or something similar to go into your database, go into the usergroup table and edit the ei_forumid field to set the character limit to 250. This will be fixed in the next version, or I'll have an alternate way for the system to handle this. Not too happy with how it does it now with typing in IDs. *shrug*

As for the hostname, try both. It depends on what you need to use to connect to the box. You can always use the Email Intergration -> Forum Settings Help to test your suspected settings.

That shouldn't affect things at all. It should work just fine.

Worst case scenario.. fire up a test board and try it out. I always strongly suggest testing new mods on a test board before using them on a live board anyway.
