I just discovered that mail2web wasn't working on my site when mail2og was turned on.. when I turned mail2og off it started working again.

I'm not sure what you have in mind in terms of maintaining threaded discussions via mail2og - but I think they are quite important. The way I thought it was going to work is that people can start new topics via mail2og by writing to group_name@foo.com and then discuss them via mail2web by hitting "reply" when they get a notification from eg post@foo.com.

Cheers,

Tobias

can you provide more information on what isn't working- are there any log entries, etc?

Hi Arthur -

Thanks for the quick reply. There are no log entries - it just quietly fails to post the comment to the post. When I turn mail2og module on, mail2web doesn't post comments. when I turn mail2og off again, it works.

I just realized I'm running an older version of mail2web (6.x-1.0-beta2) - I will upgrade it to beta3 and see if that fixes it.

Thanks again,

Tobias

I don't use mail2web, so I'm not really familar with it. My hunch is maybe mail2og thinks that the reply is going to a group. Can you forward me one of the mail2web emails and I'll add some logging to mail2og ?

Just found this issue after running into the same problem as Tobias. What information can we provide to help you track down the underlying issue? You mentioned forwarding you a mail2web email, but I'm not sure if you meant to post it here to the queue, or if you wanted us to actually send it to your email...

thanks!

Hi Arthur -

Let me know how you're getting on with this (and the other issues I posted last week or so) and how I can help. I'm eager to get this production ready and standing by to help as proactively as I can.

Thanks!

Tobias

I am in the same category: mail2web and mail to OG do not play well together. How might I assist in the testing?

I am not sure this is still a problem for me currently - I am able to post as user 1 but not any other user.. even with mail2web is installed. See http://drupal.org/node/585658

whoops - sorry for confusion, but yes indeed there is still a conflict between these two modules. When mail2og is turned on, mail2web does not handle mail.

I have a client request to fix. If anyone has further info, or has this set up in a running dev environment with a debugger, feel free to contact me or post; else I'll be going it on my own...

mail2og is, I believe, an abandoned project. you may want to take a look at http://drupal.org/project/og_mailinglist

Here's a quick fix. Note that mailcomment doesn't play nicely with og_notifications period, so I just disable it completely and use default notifications.

For this to work, you need to set up a mailcomment mailbox and make sure no group matches that address.

Note that it included the patch from here http://drupal.org/node/636782#comment-4367248 since it was needed to work at all anyway.

I'm guessing it will need work, but it's a first step.

in the last patch, I got this as rejected.
Is the second '+' supposed to be there?

is this line right?

+ '#options' => array(0 => t('No groups'), 1 => t('All groups')) + og_all_groups_options(),


*************** function mail2og_administration_form() {
*** 215,221 ****
      '#type' => 'select',
      '#multiple' => true,
      '#title' => t('Enable mail2og on'),
-     '#options' =>  array_merge(array(0 => t('No groups'), 1 => t('All groups')
), og_all_groups_options()),
      '#default_value' => variable_get('mail2og_enabled_groups', 0),
      '#description' => t('Select the groups you want to enable mail2og on. Defa
ult is all')
    );

It was supposed to be there. I'm not completely sure why, but for whatever reason, this module only worked for me after applying that patch like CodeRadar says here:
http://drupal.org/node/636782#comment-4154726

The last patch really should work... Note that it's against the alpha2 release, which is just the latest dev without the cvs commit message. Here's the patch against the latest dev. I have no idea why this one wouldn't work.. If it still doesn't, I'll probably have to just post the .module file because this actually lets mail2og and mailcomment work together!
