Description:
With this hack installed you can limit the number of emails sent to your technical mail address in case of Database Errors.
You can specify an interval in seconds between sending mails. All errors generated after the first error, until interval is passed,
are not mailed.

Optionally you can specify a different interval for different types of errors.

Operating system files will be used to keep track of the last mail sent. These will be zero byte files, so won't take any space.

Will this just stop me to receive e-mails, or will it completely stop e-mails being sent? When the database goes down, the host can receive up to 1,000 e-mails a minute. They are not happy at all with that. I want to completely stop it.

Is this hack compatible with 3.6.2?

Question...

// The directory that will be used to store the files needed for this hack.
// This directory must exist and be readable/writable by your webserver
// No need for a trailing slash (/)
// This can be an absolute path or relative to your forumhome directory
$config['mh_ldbem']['filedirectory'] = './mh_ldbem';

so if a i create a subdirectory in my forums directory called erroremails it would look like this?

$config['mh_ldbem']['filedirectory'] = './forums/erroremails';

Any chance of getting this working on vB 3.7 and without having any file changes?

Hello

Is there any chance to get this updated and working with vB 3.8.x ? Would love to see this working without any file edits.
