I have the mailhandler module installed and it's running great except for one problem: all posts done through mailhandler have comments disabled by default. After the post has been made I can go into the post, administer it and turn on comments. But this is annoying and I'd like to have comments be enabled automatically. Does anyone know how to do this?

Goto administer - configuration - modules - mailhandler

Insert comment: 2 into the default commands box. done.

You can turn off commenting by using comment: 0 in the mail's command section.

Thanks, that worked great. How did you know what command turns on the comments? I looked through the module and found a few commands with the example that was given there, but I didn't find anyplace else that had information on what the terms were for rhe commands box.

have a look at the node database table...
the commands are the same as the column names.

i wrote a little tutorial about this, but it's in german, so guess it won't be too much help for you.

Ok, I checked it out and I understand it now. Maybe there should be a little more documentation in the MailHandler module about this? Figuring out the command names isn't really explained clearly and is especially bothersome for those of us who are still new to PHP and Drupal (like me).

I think the developers would appreciate it if you could provide extended docs.
