(I am a bit of a newbie at this)</p> <p>My mail log shows the following entry:</p> <p>Jun 17 12:48:35 peter_l sendmail[858]: l5FM5vOE017116: to=&lt;blogmaster@mydomain.net&gt;, ctladdr= (48/48), delay=1+13:42:18, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=esmtp, pri=3630508, relay=nydomain.net., dsn=4.0.0, stat=Deferred: Name server: mydomain.net.: host name lookup failure.</p> <p>My SMTP server (where my normally generated e mail by my e mail client is sent) is mail.mydomain.net. How and where do I set that up in sendmail or apache (as the control address semms to reference apache)</p> <p>What is really strange is that sometimes I do get e mail from the blog, although it is often delayed, so I guess that sometimes the email is getting through...</p> <p>Any help or insight gratefully received. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/users-dont-receive-password-after-registration#post-8105 Sat, 16 Jun 2007 09:05:24 +0000 peter-b 8105@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Sorry - no, not running this on wordpress.com, it is on my own server, however (unless I have not read the headers properly) the e mails don't appear to originate from my server. I created two test accounts last night - 10 hours later the e mails still haven't arrived!</p> <p>Thank you for details of the fix. It worked (after fixing another @ strpos problem in the functions.php script) however I see that setting is bozo to zero in the admin pages removes the table row, rather than restting it to zero (i.e. setting to one creates the table row with the value 1, resetting it to zero deletes the row, rather than just resetting the value!) which seems strange behaviour - but hey - it works! No doubt it will be swept up in future versions! </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/users-dont-receive-password-after-registration#post-8102 Fri, 15 Jun 2007 23:00:15 +0000 fel64 8102@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>You're running this on WP.com? How'd you manage that? :o</p> <p>Anyway, you need <a href="http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/822?replies=16">this fix</a> because the default setting should indeed be 0. Once the fix is applied, you also have to go to each affected user and set their status to 0 again. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/users-dont-receive-password-after-registration#post-8100 Fri, 15 Jun 2007 21:56:50 +0000 peter-b 8100@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Thank you - sorry, some other anomolies/bugs! The bozo setting is strange as the default setting in the user profile is (literally) "1" but there is no entry imn the meta table. Manually setting the setting to "1" (including quotes) then generates the row in the meta table with the value "1" (including quotes) with the user set to bozo! Perhaps the default setting in the table should be 0.</p> <p>Chosen passwords might be preferable to having to wait 48 hours or more for registration password to arrive. This mechanism seems unreliable, but I'm not sure if it is a local server issue or a Wordpress.com issue... </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/users-dont-receive-password-after-registration#post-8094 Fri, 15 Jun 2007 18:02:26 +0000 fel64 8094@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>I don't know about chosen passwords.</p> <p>Bugs go to <a href="http://trac.bbpress.org." rel="nofollow">http://trac.bbpress.org.</a></p> <p>No permanent deletion yet.</p> <p>No locking forums.</p> <p>Yes.

Wordpress sends notifications from my server quite happily (although it takes about 72 hours after a post/comment to appear until I get the e mail, but with BB-press, this is a significant problem. I'm still waiting after 2 days for an e mailed password. In the end I used the md5sum function to create the hashed password iof my choosing and pasted that directly into the user table.</p> <p>Could future releases allow users to choose their own passwords at the time of registration?</p> <p>I have got BB working, but a number of bugs. How do I report them?</p> <p>How do I permanently delete posts? Can I lock forums?</p> <p>If the is_bozo line appears for a user in the user_meta table, even if the value is "1" posts are marked as spam. Updating the user profile with 0 seems to fix this.</p> <p>There are several others I have found, usually fixed by editing the tables directly using phpMyadmin!</p> <p>Server is running FC6, MySql 14.12 Distrib 5.0.27, php 4.4.7 and apache 2.2.4 </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/users-dont-receive-password-after-registration#post-8050 Thu, 14 Jun 2007 12:04:30 +0000 pravin 8050@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p><a href="http://pravin.insanitybegins.com/articles/running-bbpress-on-sourceforge/" rel="nofollow">http://pravin.insanitybegins.com/articles/running-bbpress-on-sourceforge/</a></p> <p>Read this for a full resolution.
