I'm using gmail as the email. All the gmail user receive the password but both hotmail and yahoo can't </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/registration-email-query#post-2941 Fri, 05 Jan 2007 20:31:03 +0000 chrishajer 2941@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Cheap hosts sometimes get blocked too, no matter what type of email is sent from them. So, Yahoo! might be blocking all mail from smtp.mycheapwebhost.com. It has happened. </p> <p>Good luck. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/registration-email-query#post-2940 Fri, 05 Jan 2007 19:59:23 +0000 jonnydf 2940@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Thanks for the reply. I thought the spam filtering out was most likely yahoo's fault. I honestly don't think any of my problems are related to bbpress, and maybe more likely my cheapo hosting! :-)</p> <p>I have another installation of bbpress on another domain and it seems to work ok.</p> <p>I'm thinking of looking into linking up with wordpress as well because I have used it before and really like it. Any my forum seems to be functioning which is the main thing and I'm happy I found bbpress for it! </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/registration-email-query#post-2939 Fri, 05 Jan 2007 19:10:00 +0000 chrishajer 2939@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>I don't know the 'official' answer, but I have had several users register a new name with an old email address (their username was spelled wrong or something) and they got their email and it works fine.</p> <p>To test, I just re-registered myself with a new name and an old email address, and it was received. I am on a gmail account. I do know that MSN, AOL and Yahoo tend to be aggressive with their anti-spam, and there are a lot of false positives (I know this from other business mail I send.) user_email is not a UNIQUE field in the database either. (I am integrated with WP - not sure if it matters.)</p> <p>I suspect it's spam filtering catching the emails. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/registration-email-query#post-2932 Fri, 05 Jan 2007 16:25:40 +0000 jonnydf 2932@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Ok first post and I'm going to start by saying having only been using bbpress for 2 days I think its great, and just what I was looking for in appearance for a forum ie clutterfree and simple.</p> <p>I am no expert on this but I'll try and explain a problem I am having with registration emails. It may not be anything to do with bbpress but I'm hoping someone here may have the experience to help.</p> <p>PROBLEM: User register seems to be fine and the mysql database is filled with their details. They get the email. All ok. However, if I try to create a different user with the same email (I'm doing this for testing) I never seem to get a registration email. Does bbpress do a check to see if a email address is already being used? I don't seem to get this problem if a create users with an email address at the domain the forum is hosted. Also if I have an account and use the forgotten password recovery I find I get the email to generate a new password but don't see the email with the new password.</p> <p>On top of this yahoo seems to be picking up the registration email as spam, I don't know if this is normal.</p> <p>I hope this isn't too long winded. If anyone has any thoughts I'd love to hear them. I know people are registering with my forum and using it so it does work! But they all have individual passwords. Thanks! :-) </p>
