I have posted this on the support forum for the plugin as well, but posting here too and hope it’s ok.
Our top priority feature request for an educational site would be to be able to make a new BBpress topic via email in a specific BBpress forum for a specific BP group. We need to set up 50+ of those for teachers.
It would be perfect if it could be set so that only approved users with certain email addresses in a list can make a new BBpress topic via the addresses. Then the emailaddress does not need to be “hidden”. IMAP or POP would probably be the easiest and best way to get the email.
The rest can be handled by out of the box BBpress functionality as I see it.
Any chance of this happening with this very promising plugin?
thanx for listening!

Just curious if this might happen. When you have a sec drop a quick reply here?
thanx

Hi Unicornis,
Basically two things:
1. Allow some users (mods and admins in corresponding Buddy Press group)
to post a new topic via mail to any of our 50+ BB Press forums.
(50?+ secret mail addresses?).
With html and fileattachments. Would probably prefer import of the email via IMAP.
2. Allow some users (mods and admins in corresponding Buddy Press group)
to start a new topic in BB Press and have it immediately set out as email
to the corresponding Buddy Press Group.
With html and fileattachment.
Is this something that can be done already?
If not, could it be added?
thanx

Hey Spencerhill, wcpreston or anyone else who knows about this.
Did this functionality get developed? I would be very interested too.
thanx
