(and yes, i've modified the email template: it made no difference at all.  gmail still picks it up as spam, unfortunately).

hi,

how exactly do i copy headers from gmail?

i can copy them from an email sent to my personal inbox from the forum (which isn't being detected as spam, but it's the same email), but i'd prefer not to paste that completely in a public place.  can i email that to you?



edit: actually, just figured it out.  i'll paste an external link to it in a second.

Hi,

Messages from PunBB keep being detected as spam; sometimes in Apple's Mail.App and always in Gmail (where users don't see any messages unless they look in their spam inbox).

Interestingly, spamassassin tends to pass PunBB messages fine, often with a negative score.  Hotmail passes the messages fine, too.  Normal emails (i.e. not from PunBB) from the same domain go through fine to Gmail etc.

I'm not new to spam/emails/etc at all: I know the servers/domain names/MX records/etc are fine.  I'm not using SPF records, though.   I've tried restructuring the emails PunBB sends but nothing I seem to be doing is working.

Any ideas, anyone?  Do other people have this issue (and how did they solve it)?

Hi,

So I've been looking at all the open source forums out there and I really like the way punbb looks - simple, clean.

I'm VERY concerned about it from a security perspective: I fear using it in the way I want will almost guarantee a forum security compromise.

There's some missing features I definitely want in it, namely:
- MOST IMPORTANTLY:  Ability to add/upload inline attachments (images mostly).

- An easy to use BBcode (or something) editor: not everybody knows how various tags work off the top of their head
- Private messaging system.  This may not be 100% required, but would be nice.
- The ability to change the page/post layout without hacking the hell out of the code and making upgrades hard

All of these things are available as third party things I can install, but the install methods look horrible - manually edit files, etc.   Not only am I trusting third party code, but trying to manage upgrades of punbb and all the third party things I've put on it is going to be a bloody nightmare - I'll have to diff/edit a million files manually.  Ugh.

This is really putting me off using punbb.

Can anybody comment on this, please?  Maybe suggest known secure plugins I should use, etc?
