Hi Robert,
I've registered for you, you should recieve an activation mail. Please change
the password as soon as you activated your account. If you would like to have
different name, then let me know, I change it. As soon as you have activated
this, I will give you admin/moderator rights, so
OT: why are all the posts in this thread coming from the forum not
threading correctly? It seems the mails don't have an in-reply-to
header. Was this always the case for posts coming from the forum?

Paul

hmm, yes it seems there are no In-Reply-To header tag, when a message is sent
through the forum. But I has never recieved any threading issue with the

I'd prefer not to go in heavy handed, but find a system that right at the
begining sets the right tone for future communication. I wonder if

Hi Robert, all.
I think adding another approval system to let users approve that they have to
follow some kind of etiquette wouldn't have big success. Users would just
click on Yes, I agree as soon as they see that button. Hence, I am not sure
if this is needed at all.
However checking the
Hi folks,
ok, I took a look into email header standards and it seems there exists a
solution for our purpose. I could specify in the from header users realname and
users real email adress. Although the email will still be sent from
osgfo...@tevs.eu, using the Sender: tag in the header.

I wasn't thinking of this, rather I just meant for a group of maintainers,
like yourself and I and others regular contributors to act as the approval

I bet Art can come up with a forum adjustment to automatically add the
username, real name and possibly the forum e-mail.

Hi Robert, Paul.
Ok, let me first answer Roberts questions and then coming to Paul's.
@Robert:
Yes, I was also afraid if forum becames more wide used, so that the community
might became more anonymized then by using mailing list. I noticed same
behaviour on any forum. Users are just very lazy
Hi Roland,
yes I can do some adjustments, however the current setup is the most one can
take out of the current situtation, I think.
Users are forced to write a real name. Email is sent as: From: Real Name
osgfo...@tevs.eu or if user do change its profile, then it can also be From:
Real Name
Would it be an idea if mail2forum generates an HTML e-mail similar to a forum
response?

It wouldn't be a big problem, however I am not sure if people, who are like to

Hi all,
And what about manually banning (temporarily) from the forum those who don't
respect basic rules? That could be simple:
1. Warn the user if the real name isn't explicit enough
2. Ban until real name is changed (The user could still use the mailing list)
I'm pretty sure people would not
