Hi folks,

I recently added a new feature to the forum. From now on there is no need to 
use the same email address for the forum as for the mailing list. You can setup 
your profile to use forum's default email address in the "From" headers of 
mails sent through the forum. 

This feature allows you to unsubscribe your mail box from the mailing list and 
move to forum use only. It also allows you to hide your email address from 
users outside of the forum. Only registered forum users could then find out 
your real email address. If you post a topic/message on the forum following 
happens:
- if you have enabled forum's default mail adress in from header, the email 
posted on the mailing list will be posted as "From:  Your Name 
<forum's...@email>"
- if this feature is not enabled, then it will be posted as  "From: Your Name 
<y...@email>" - in this case your email adress has to be subscribed on the 
mailing list

An example how it works you can see when you take a look on the header of this 
mail. My name and forum's email adress were used for the "From" header.

Best regards and have fun,
art

P.S. To enable the feature login on the forum and click on "Mail2Forum 
Settings" right to the logo. Or just visit here
