vBulletin Mail System
Finally, for vBulletin 3.6, there is a port from filburt1's original hack. For those of you who aren't aware, he essentially declared it open source, and it's been a bit of a wait for someone to fix it up... I've wanted it for my site, too, so I finally sat down and just did it. What is this? The vBulletin Mail System is a way to give your users webmail access from your site. They can have a name@yourwebsite.com address, send and receive emails and attachments, etc. Options such as mailbox quotas, limits on numbers/types of attachments, a message trailer ("Free mail at yourwebsite.com!") at the end of each message, etc. are all available as well. Please note: this is a pre-final version. As far as I have seen, it is working so far for me, but I have not tested it completely and thoroughly and it's very likely there'll be a number of bugs popping up. However, I have successfully been able to install this on a clean board, exchange emails regularly (including attachments), go through all the basic options/etc. without any errors popping up, so it should be fine. Still, make sure you back up your database before installing this, just due to the nature of its "beta"-ness. To install: upload all files from the "upload" directory to your server in the proper directories. Then, navigate to admincp/vbms_install.php on your server and run the installer. It will make several template additions. If your navbar or header templates hav been modified, it will not be able to do it automatically, and you'll have to add these edits yourself. In template navbar, find: Code:
<td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="usercp.php$session[sessionurl_q]">$vbphrase[user_cp]</a></td> Code:
<if condition="$show['popups']"> <td class="vbmenu_control" id="navbar_vbms"> <a href="vbms.php$session[sessionurl_q]">$vbphrase[email]</a> <if condition="$vbms_newmessages['newcount'] > 0"> <span style="font-weight: normal; padding: 1px 1px 1px 2px; margin: 0px 3px 0px 2px; border: 1px inset" class="alt1"> <phrase 1="$vbms_newmessages[newcount]">$vbphrase[x_new]</phrase> </span> </if> <script type="text/javascript"> <!-- vbmenu_register("navbar_vbms"); // --> </script> </td> <else /> <td class="vbmenu_control" id="navbar_vbms"> <a href="vbms.php$session[sessionurl_q]">$vbphrase[email]</a> <if condition="$vbms_newmessages['newcount'] > 0"> <span style="font-weight: normal; padding: 1px 1px 1px 2px; margin: 0px 3px 0px 2px; border: 1px inset" class="alt1"> <phrase 1="$vbms_newmessages[newcount]">$vbphrase[x_new]</phrase> </span> </if> </td> </if> Code:
<!-- / header quick search form --> </if> <if condition="$show['member']"> Code:
<div class="vbmenu_popup" id="navbar_vbms_menu" style="display: none"> <table cellpadding="4" cellspacing="1" border="0"> <tr><td class="thead">vBulletin Mail System</td></tr> <tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="vbms.php?$session[sessionurl]">$vbphrase[navbar_inbox]</a></td></tr> <tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="vbms_new.php?$session[sessionurl]">$vbphrase[navbar_write_message]</a></td></tr> <tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="vbms_ab.php?$session[sessionurl]">$vbphrase[navbar_address_book]</a></td></tr> <tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="vbms_folders.php?$session[sessionurl]">$vbphrase[navbar_folders]</a></td></tr> <tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="vbms_filters.php?$session[sessionurl]">$vbphrase[navbar_filters]</a></td></tr> <tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="vbms_options.php?$session[sessionurl]">$vbphrase[navbar_options]</a></td></tr> <tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="faq.php?$session[sessionurl]faq=faq_vbms">$vbphrase[navbar_help]</a></td></tr> </table> </div> Feel free to post with any bugs or questions you find, etc. I'm trying to get this working again thoroughly, for all of us.

Well I've "fixed" the issue with no number of attachments being shown.
In the template "VBMS_NEW",youll find lots of PHP Code:

is there any timetable on this going final? i am getting the cant connect to server error when i try to install it but i dont think ours will connect at all because we specifically close off the pop3 port and only use imap for email. do you just change the port? or does it use pop3 even though it needs the imap functionality?

i have got this error after testing:
------------------------- Installation failed while "Testing Settings": vBMS couldn't connect to the mail server using the settings you provided. Please go back and verify their accuracy. If you are not sure of the values to use, consult your host. Details: Warning: imap_open() [function.imap-open]: Couldn't open stream {xxxxxx.com:110/pop3}INBOX in /includes/vbms_class_installer.php on line 791 ------------------------------------------- I am sure that the port number is 110 and the hostname is my domain name |

this hack seems to be quite buggy. installed it a week ago and now my vbms_messages table is 750+MB in size Killing my server (2.8GHZ + 2GB RAM) (9.0 8.9 8.5 load) ... 1000x copies of same email been saved and only 45people are using it.
Quota system does not seem to work and people can bypass it... Cron seem to run all the time when a user/guest visits the forumhome... |

Do not install this version of vBMS on your live forums. Use a test server instead. This is a pre-final version of vBMS, meaning it still contains bugs and needs further testing. If you install this version of vBMS onto a production server, it may be difficult to later uninstall or upgrade to the final version.
i dont get this, so we still cant install this in our real forum???? |
