HMBeaty,

Nice job on the mod. It's obvious you spent a lot of time with everything, put together a nice readme, etc. I'll buy it when it goes to 1.4.0 with the options you mentioned it will have.

But, I really dislike the "backdoor" thing where it sends you an email when someone installs the mod. It's backdoor because I didn't know about it. If I had known about it I wouldn't care, but I dislike things sending emails and such without my knowledge. Sure, I could be expected to read every line of php code, but I guess I usually trust people who have high marks on vb.org.

I just double checked the top summary section of this thread, as well as the bundled readme file, just to make certain you didn't give notice about this -- and I can't see where you did.

Mike
