I am receiving the following message when posting a message to the forum:

There was an error = The message was undeliverable. All servers failed to receive the message

I have encountered this problem before. It apparently had to do with a specific message. After deletion everything worked fine. Also it had only affected that topic. However this time it appears to affect all new posts.

If any can help it would be appreciated. Thanks.

Also the forum can be found on http://www.edvdchat.com

This error comes from the e-mail module. Either your definition in the admin area is false, or your host changed your server names, or the server is down. If you correct or disable it, you'll get rid of the error.

This is probably after you enabled the e-mail feature, and the post you mention is a post somebody checked for being e-mail reminder.

Ok ... I'll check the email reminder however. This seemed to be happening with only 3 topics. I have fixed one by editing and saving the post of a hotmail member and then editing it back to the original text. Also it doesn't seem to be causing problems with any new topics and know seems isolated to only those 2 topics.

I have had the email server setup and it had been working. Also when I turned it off the problem was still occurring in those two topics.

The topics you are having trouble with probably have someone that checked the box to be notified by e-mail.

If I check each post by clicking on the edit feature should this show the check box as marked or does it not remember when editing a post. I am asking because I tried this procedure and the check box is cleared for all of the messages in those topics.

The information is kept in FORUM_REPLY table in R_MAIL field. Its related to the poster of that reply. So if someone edits its own reply, he/she will se that field as "checked" if he/she checked it before. The code compares the current user name with the name of the poster to show that field.

This means that the original poster has to clear that checkbox. Or you have to download the database and clear it manually.

Re-checked the code and that behaviour on v3.2a6 and found the above statement is true. Its by design.

Re-checked the code overall. If you disable the e-mail service properly, no problems should arise. If you solve you e-mail server problem and turn the feature on again, then old remeinders will start to work again.

yeah, that was happening to me and as soon
as I fixed the email part, the posts that i
was having trouble were magically fixed.
Well not magically, but you get the point.

if you use the email thingy [ i forget what
its called ] that sniff out what kinda email
setting you should have.. it helps.

Anyone care to tell him that email thingy I
am talking about?

Go here: http://forum.snitz.com/archive/default.asp?catid=11&cattitle=Forum+Setup+Tools and download the "Check Email Component" tool. Upload it to your forum directory and run it from your browser. It will show what email components you have installed on the server.
