Oh.... did some more testing and found another thing.... Reply to posts dosen't work. 
When I reply I can read what I posted, but if I browse the view topic page the topic I posted in is gone. Everything I reply to a post it disappears. Something is seriosly wrong here.

Topic: Restoring a backup - something went wrong, need help! (2 replies, posted in PunBB 1.2 troubleshooting)
I'm having some trobule getting a backup to work. I reinstalled my server and the forum installation is gone so I have a freshly installed PunBB and my SQL-file. The SQL-file is called punbb.sql and my database is called punbb.
The first thing I did was to create the punbb database and install punBB using this database. After that I uploaded my punbb.sql to my server and did a: rdj@server:~$ mysql -p -u mysqluser punbb < punbb.sql. This works fine and my forum looks like normal. When I try to post i got an error message that I solved using this script found at these boards.
<?PHP
define('PUN_ROOT', './');
require PUN_ROOT.'include/common.php';
$db->query('UPDATE '.$db->prefix.'users SET last_post=0');
?>Then posting seemed to work. But whenever I create a new topic everything looks normal but when the redirecting is done and I'm back at the view topic page again the new post wont show. It's gone. Cant fint it anywhere. But if I choose to reply to an already existing post, everything works fine.
So... What have I done wrong when I restored my backup? A forum where users cant post new posts and only reply to existing posts will become quite boring after a while. 
any ideas?

Hm. I tried sending a mail to another user via the forum and that worked fine. But E-mails when people tries to register doesn't work.

Topic: Problems when sending new mails from PunBB. (9 replies, posted in PunBB 1.2 troubleshooting)
Hi!
A while ago i converted my phpBB forum to PunBB and I really like it. But there's one problem for me. When punBB wants to send an e-mail when a user register or request his/her password i get the following error message (With debug on).
An error was encountered
File: /var/www/forum/include/email.php
Line: 96
PunBB reported: Unable to send e-mail. Please contact the forum administrator with the following error message: "553 Authentication is required to send mail as "I tought that was weird so i tried to send a mail from my ordinary mail client and used the same SMTP server that punBB uses and i got no errors. So there is probably no error with authentication. Any suggestion what I can do to solve this problem?
Thanks in advance!
