Reserved post position for FAQ.

Q: How come there is lack of response for my support problem?
A: Perhaps it is something that is so obvious, or perhaps something should be known by reading readme file or even just go through your nntp settings. ...or if you don't even try any effort to explain your problem, you won't expect others do much to help you. If you have been using a hack, you should click 'INSTALL'. A hack author will be reluctant to help if they see you are not even acknowledging using their hack.

Q: New threads created instead of merging into the existing thread.
A: There is a setting in adminCP to find the thread by subject. Some messages/emails may not contain reference in the header for the usual threading to work.

Q: Why some user name or subject show up as =?Utf-8?B?S2ltYmE=?=
A: You need 'imap_mime_header_decode' php function. Ask your host if not sure.

Great to see it for 3.5 I'm still using the old perl script, but will give this a try.

Thanks lierduh. I won't upgrade to 3.5 until it is out of beta, but, it is nice to see this one is ready when I need it.

[ART]

Thanx lierduh, for now installed it locally but seems to work ok, the upgrade went pretty smooth

lierduh,

1st, thank you for taking the time bringing us this nice add-on.

I just installed this on 3.5RC1 and it works fine other then the admincp is somewhat screwed up, no big deal.

I did a test with the news.microsoft feed as suggested in the readme. Works fine (haven't tested posting yet). i was able to fetch thousands of posts and most of them find the reference thread (Thread found by References.).

However I am having issues with majordomo mailinglists. I am fetching from two lists. One actual busy list with about 50 new posts per day and one test majordomo I setup.

The problem is that posts don't find there reference thread and start new ones. So I end up with 5 threads on the same subject. All have the same subject line. RE.:123, RE.:123, RE.:123, 123 etc.

Is this a known issue? Is there some tuning I can do?

[lierduh]

What is the actual issue with admincp?

There is a setting you can set to use matching subject to find the thread instead of using reference in the header.

[klaus]

Thanx for the quick response.

Never mind the admincp error. I screwed up. Its fixed.
I am playing with the setting on matching subject next.

[klaus]

The Subject deal worked perfect for Mailinglist.

But attachments are ignored.
My settings: "Skip attachments no_attach 0"

"Thread found by Subject.
This forum does not allow attachments, therefore attachment ignored."

If I post in the forum I can post attachments fine. I use filesystem for my attachments by the way, not sure if that matters.

It didn't send it as my typed in e-mail address. This is on RC1 also. Thanks for the great hack.

I don't think it's running properly with my installation.

The instructions include:

7. The gateway script has been designed to be run periodically. There are two ways to achieve this.

You can use the vB3's internal Scheduled tasks to run the script automatically.

Go to AdminCP, under Scheduled Tasks, create a new task to run every one hour. Enter 'gateway.php' in the filename section. Usualy you would like the script to run more often than once each hour. You can create more than one tasks to run at different minutes of the hour to achieve this.

I did just that, but when I try to run the script manually (Scheduled Tasks -> Scheduled Task Manager -> Mailing List Gateway -> Run Now) I get the source of a raw HTML file instead of the standard "Done" blue screen. Permissions are set so that gateway.php is executable, and the location of gateway.php is correct, so I don't know what I'm doing wrong.

What is displayed on the screen?

Sorry, I think I am lost.
