A few minor suggestions to make this mod even better:

1. Use the standard forum sender name and address in outgoing emails (or provide an option to do so). It does not make sense to use the recipient's address in the From: header, and furthermore this causes many invitation emails to be misidentified as spam. Our forum is heavily optimized so that outgoing emails do not get flagged as spam (reverse DNS, SPF records, etc.) but this requires that the outgoing emails have the forum address in the From: header.

I'm getting this exact problem. My invitations say "successful" but invites to yahoo and hotmail users get blocked (doesn't even show up in spam folder) through this mod. I contacted my isp and added spf records, but still hasn't helped. What does reverse DNS do and how do I do it? Sending msg's through the forum to yahoo and homtail users get by fine because the email shows the header From: "Administrator @ MY FORUM" <admin@myhost.com>

My invite headers look like the invitees are getting mail from themselves.

To: USERNAME@yahoo.com
Subject: You've been invited to join MY FORUM
From: "Administrator @ MY FORUM" <USERNAME@yahoo.com>

Is there a bit of code to edit to send through the forum mail server?

I've sent a test email to a yahoo/hotmail account from the admincp/diagnostics and email get through.
Ive sent mail from my hostcp and email gets through so I know its a problem with the mod.
Does anyone else have this problem?

I just tried to send a invite using the test forum Hasann created to a yahoo user and it was blocked... so it can't just be me having this problem. Has anyone successfully sent an invite to a yahoo user?

Anyone know how this can be fixed? The cat is outside the table

[jbear6]

Is anyone using this mod successfully with vB 3.7.1? I've read this entire thread, but am still unclear on how well this hack works. Seems like a great mod, but does it actually work?

Thanks,
Jbear6

I am using it, it seems ok.

I just wondered if there would be plans to include hot mail messenger into this.

Like on facebook it can contact your contact list and then send an email to everybody inviting them

Thank you TriMe...I feel like a dummy because i didnt even realize that was the problem lol...Thanks for setting me clear on it...Be well...

P.S. in response to your post about hotmail blocking it, i sent it to several hotmail addresses and they all got it...I dont know what could be causing yours to do that. Other than hotmail and yahoo automatically block everything it seems, so your friends may need to click allow web content somewhere in their email options...Worth a try...Be well -
