Hi, I am not quiet sure, if I understood pen pals. For me it means:
I send an email outgoing to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and if this address is answering in a short period (7d), it will get a bonus score. So if the sender would had become 3.5 score points in normal situations, it might be lowered by the value of $penpals_bonus_score. Is that right so far? So I have the following in my Ubuntu Hardy 50-users file, showing all settings here and not just the penpals-part (maybe something conflicts the settings): ---------------------------------------------------- use strict; # # Place your configuration directives here.

And the score is untouched. I hope, I do not ask too stupied questions here. But I really could not find answers in the web and I would like such a cool feature ;-) Thanks for your answers in advance Christian -- Roessner Network Solutions (R.N.S.)
