  • Posting from email to a sub.

    From Tony Langdon@VERT to All on Tue Mar 13 14:09:00 2018
    Just a little permissions/access issue. I thought I had this one nailed before, but I'm attempting to have posts sent to a specific user@mybbs posted to a sub.

    I have configured my alias.cfg with a line

    username sub:internal_code.

    When I post an email to that sub, I get a "550 insufficient permission" error. I've allowed access level 0 to post to the sub, as well as globally allowing user level 0 to post 1000 posts/day (more than I'll need). What else am I missing?


    ... Government corruption seems always to be reported in the past tense.

    Hm... Does user level 0 have acess to the message group? Does it have read access to the sub-board as well?

    OK, group access has no restrictions. I did have a flag restriction on sub access, have added level = 0 to that. Read access was unrestricted. Just about to test. :)

    Yep, that worked, thanks. :) One to keep in mind. :)
