EZ Bounced Email Management for Admins · **Released**: 02-08-2007

DESCRIPTION:
This mod will insert a special EZbounce link into the header of all emails sent from your forums. In the event any email bounces back to you, you simply click the EZbounce link and the Ezbounce script launches, which will modify the bouncing members settings to prevent further bouncing emails. It will also send that member a PM asking them to update their email address.

This modification is known to work with versions as high as 3.8.x

FEATURES:

Will not modify settings for Admins, Supermods, or Moderators if their email bounces
(if turned on) Bouncing member is moved to whatever usergroup you set in AdminCP EZbounce Settings
Updates bouncing member's "Receive Email from Administrators" setting to NO
Updates bouncing member's "Receive Email Notification of New Private Messages" setting to NO
Updates bouncing member's "Receive Email from Other Members" setting to NO
Remove email notification for all of bouncing member's subscribed THREADS
Remove email notification for all of bouncing member's subscribed FORUMS
Turns on Popup Notification of new Private Messages for bouncing member
PM is sent to Member notifying them of bounced email & asking them to update email address
(if turned on) When member updates & confirms their new email, they are returned to original usergroup.

Now, the next time you send a newsletter from your AdminCP, (so long as you only send emails to members whom have "Receive Email From Administrators" set to "Yes") you will no longer receive a bounced email from this member (because they are no longer being sent).

And also, if you created a new usergroup such as "Bounced Members" and set this usergroupid in this hack's settings, now the members that have bounced can be pruned, sent reminder emails, whateveryou want to do with them!

WHAT IF A MEMBER DECIDED TO CLICK ON THE LINK IN THE EMAIL HEADER?
Most email clients don't show the email's headers by default, however in the event a member is slick enough to view their header and they click on this mysterious link, they will simply receive a no permission message since they're unallowed to log in to the AdminCP.

ZIP FILE CONTENTS:
1 Product (2 plugins, a couple phrases & installcode which adds 1 colum to user table)
1 File

HOW TO VIEW FULL EMAIL HEADERS:
You might need to configure your email client to view full email headers in order to see the EzBounce link. There's detailed instructions on how to do this for the most popular email clients here.

I show the link in the bounced emails, but it's not clickable. I tried the 'add space before and after' technique suggested, but that didn't work for me. Using Outlook 2007.

I've just installed and I got a mysql error. I am on mysql 5.0.2. How can I fix that please?

PHP Code:


			
SELECT * FROM user
WHERE email LIKE '%fname\_lname@hotmail.com%';

MySQL Error  : Table 'user' was not locked with LOCK TABLES
Error Number : 1100

I replaced real email with fname and lname

Are you talking about the link in the bounced email's body or the link in the bounced email's header?

I'm not too familiar with MySql 5.x as my servers are running MySql v4.1.12. I haven't ever experienced this type of error so i can't help, but you might find some info here...

The bounced emails header is included in the body of the email that I get back. It starts:

------ This is a copy of the message, including all the headers. ------

And so it is in this area that the link is not clickable.

Antivirus · #**206** 04-26-2007, 08:26 PM

That's odd, the link should be "clickable" for you. It's due to one of the following:

Your settings in the AdminCP Options for this Hack. Try setting "Show EZ Bounce link in email message body" to YES

OR

Your settings for Outlook... Try changing your email client to something other then Outlook 2007 and it should work. I can't provide support for Outlook, unfortunately I don't know which of your Outlook settings need to be changed to properly display links in your emails.
