sql-mode STRICT_TRANS_TABLES results in new forum topics not being logged/emailed

I'm getting errors creating a new post in a forum. When replying to an existing post that was inserted via mailhandler, I don't have any issues. I believe the error is stemming from the fac that both the CID and TID values in the sql insert statement are null. Looking at the way the new posts are tracked, is this even right to have CID and TID values null? It seems if you have a bunch of posts with null there will be problems finding the posts later.

I guess maybe it's assuming mysql is just complaing about warnings

user warning: Incorrect integer value: '' for column 'cid' at row 1 query: INSERT INTO listhandler (msgid, nid, cid, pid, uid, mid, tid) VALUES ('
','30','','0','1','1','') in E:\websites\mog_drupal\modules\listhandler\listhandler.module on line 405.
