Justin,

I was wondering if was posible to add a feature where the e-mails that the systems sends to member could be different from the system admin e-mail address? This would be nice, cus I want to have a different e-mail for the outgoing, so that I dont get spamed if members reply to that one.

Any questions, feel free to PM me.

Peace,
Kevin

Just put the "admin" e-mail as noreply@yoursite.com or something, why not do that?


I do installs for $25 and upgrades for $20.

Justin,

That is what I have it set to right now, but when someone incounters an error, or "stop" page, it has a link that says, contact the system admin, and I would like to have that goto a different account then the noreply@mysite.com. That is the reason why I'm asking.

Thanks,
Kevin

Hmm ...

Do this ... this will be a quick fix for it.  Change it back to the right thing in Admin/Settings, but change the following peice of code (in Routines.pl):


Search for:
Code
     if($eadmin eq '') { $eadmin = "noreply\@noreply.noreply"; }


Add this BEFORE that code:
Code
     $eadmin = '';

Justin,

Thank you very much. It worked. Is there any chance of getting something like that built in to the next version? Cus, I really would hate to have to hack it each time there is an update to the software.

Thanks for all you help,
Kevin

You could make a mod for it in your modification center.

Justin,

I have never figured out how to make the whole modification center thing work. I click the "Build a New Modification", and it then asks for Name of Modification, I type something in, then it returns with an eblah error page that says "There has been an error in processing your request. Please review the following information. If you are unsure as to why you are receiving the following error, please contact the system administrator. Cannot find the modification you specified."

Did I do something wrong on the install?

Any help you can give would be great.

Thanks,
Kevin

Quoted from admin
change the following peice of code (in Routines.pl):

Search for:
Code
     if($eadmin eq '') { $eadmin = "noreply\@noreply.noreply"; }


Add this BEFORE that code:
Code
     $eadmin = '';


I did this... and it did work great!  But  AOL and a couple of other hosts sent back fatal errors on a system email (not every host, just a two)... I'm guessing because there wasn't an email address in the return.  When I uninstalled the mod, no errors.

What can I put in that  $eadmin = ''; line instead to get past the email servers?

cool  

I think I just realized a mistake i made earlier... the "$eadmin = '';" was supposed to go before the line... not replace the line.

oops  

Seeing it from a different perspective often helps.

Thanks much

This modification is great and works well... However, I wonder if there is any way of the "from" address actually being from the person who sends the email.

I have various different groups using my website and 3 administrators. Is there anyway that the replyto address could be the registered email address of the admin sending it?

Thanks,

Tez )
