SMF Mailing List Mod
pftq:
One notion that came up with another user was that upgrading to SMF2 from an existing installation instead of a fresh install led to problems with the mod. Finally had the chance to test that out on an upgraded forum myself but sad to say it worked just fine on my end. Seems like a tough one to track down - if anyone can give me access to an example SMF2 board that is having trouble with the mod, would be greatly appreciated.
In the mean time, I noticed that line endings (differing OS between server/local) that might cause problems during install, so I added the following to the FAQ (first post):
I keep getting Mail delivery failed with "Error in argument 1, char 3: option not found <"
- Please unzip the download package before uploading to your server and installing. Sometimes the unzipping function on the server does not preserve linebreaks properly, if for example you are uploading from Windows to Linux. If the mod is already installed, unzip the package on your computer and reupload emailpost.php to your forum directory (replacing the corrupt one).

Hi,
I've configured the mailing list mod to work on an OpenSuse server using email piping. We have an exchange account which sends emails directly to the server.
The probelm is whenever I activate the email address (in settings) and send an email all members get the email sent to their address. I've enabled the Enable Mail Queue feature in the mail settings to manage the emails (and delete them before they're sent out).
Has anyone ever seen this before?
Thanks,
W

I'm not clear on what the problem is. Can you please elaborate?
pftq:
Someone brought to my attention that having guest browsing disabled causes the mod not to be able to post replies to the board from email. The debug also only shows two lines. It seems to make sense since posting by email is essentially causing whatever pipes the emails to browse to the board (technically as a guest).
Just putting this out there incase anyone else still has trouble running the script.

Hey pqft,
Unfortunately i am not in a position to enable guest browsing at the moment, so I cannot really test that theory. any chance of a different version coming out?
