A long time ago (before vbulletin.org was created), I was part of a discussion about an idea to create Email addresses for individual forums.

Is there a hack available to do this?

We were talking about the ability to assign an email address to a particular forum. Then, all messages sent to that email address were submitted as new posts in that forum.

It's a way to allow an email mailing list (majordomo, mailman, etc) to interact with web-forums.

Anyway, is there something developed for this already? I've been out of this world for awhile.

Did you ever do this yourself, I am looking for exactly this kind of process, but I am not a programmer :cry:

No, I never put together this code. But, there were a few programmers at vBulletin.com working on it. I don't know how far they got. And, I think those hacking forums were wiped clean when everything moved over here to vbulletin.org (not sure about that).

I'll do a search at vbulletin.com and see if I can find that stuff again.

It's a worthwhile hack and it's in somebody's mind... I just need to find that somebody.

Nothing was deleted when the hacks forum was moved. It was just moved.

Where is the old hacks forum from vbulletin.com?

I found this for a start, any help? It seems to be mainly about email out, but has aspects of email in.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
