I’ve made good progress with my forum and mailing list integration work. I’ve got the forums posting to the mailing list and I’ve got code working that retrieves e-mail from an account and posts it to the right forum. Now I just need to do some subject/thread title pattern matching and it’ll be all set.
As previously mentioned, I plan to have beta and annoucement mailing lists for each product, nicely mirrored in the forums.
I’m really pleased with how the forums are working out so far. I really like having the answers I give people out there in public so I can point related inquiries at the thread that already has the answers.

The workaround I’m using now is that I added my own “Forum Subscription” mod to PunBB and then created a ‘mailing list’ user whom I then subscribed to the appropriate forums. Whenever a new topic is created in those forums, it gets sent out on the list… it’s only a one-way system but it works.

Yeah, the tricky part is reading the e-mails and finding the proper thread to put the posts in.

It’s still on my list - just haven’t had time to work on it yet.

Hi Alex,
did you complete the PunBB - Mailman integration? Are there instructions/suggestions on where to look for how to do that?
Thanks very much,
