Prevent E-mail's From Sitting In The Junk Folder

Thanks to Nexlysis (think that's how you spell it) for the tip, it's an easy mod, i installed it on my live board and not only did it send the stuff to my inbox it made babies

but open functions.php and find:

PHP Code:

// ###################### Start vb_send_mail #######################
function vb_send_mail($toemail, $subject, $message, $header)
{
    global $vboptions;

    if (!class_exists('Mail'))
    {
        require_once('./includes/mail.php');
    } 


and below add:

PHP Code:

    // +++ de-Spam email
    $message = trim($message);
    // --- de-Spam email 


now find in the same file:

PHP Code:

        if ($vboptions['usemailqueue'] AND !$notsubscription)
        {
            $data = '(' . TIMENOW .' , "' . addslashes($toemail) . '" , "' . addslashes($subject) . '" , "' . addslashes($message) . '" , "' . addslashes($headers) . '" )'; 


and then above add

PHP Code:

        // +++ de-Spam email
        $message = trim($message);
        // --- de-Spam email 


save and upload because you're done.

it seems to cut all white spaces after and before the message.. Maybe antispam sw are confused by white spaces?

I see... but I find the biggest issue is AOL why do they block everything??? (from the Forums that is)

[C.Birch]

because aol suck to sum things up, there way to much with all the your emails safe crap and they most block about 80-90% of all incoming email grrr.

I would hope that any good filtering software wouldn't have a problem with spaces. Thanks for the hack, though!
