Mass email reply to

Postby caober on Mon 27. Oct, 2003 23:04

I've installed your Custom mass email Mod ver 1.1.0 on a 2.0.4
board. All is working correctly except the emails received have the reply
to set as the board admin. How do I change this to have the reply-to set as the person that actually composed the email?

You should be aware, that the "reply" button should send the email directly to the user, witch have made the mass email (only if he/she have his email set as visible in the profile)
so maybe the only thing you need is to update your profile....

anyway, if you at all times need the email to be sendt from the actual user, then you may change this behaiver, by opening the file mass_email.php

Code: Select all
[FIND]
$email_headers .= "From: \"".$board_config['sitename']."\" <".$board_config['board_email'].">\r\n";

[REPLACE WITH]
$email_headers .= "From: \"".$userdata['username']."\" <".$usaerdata['user_email'].">\r\n";


I haven't tested this, but it should work.
(if a how-to is EM ready, it will mostly be bullet prof, since a machine is more picky than a human. :D)

Thanks, it works.

Profiles are set to show emails but the site configuration doesn't display them.
