if you get an email notification from the 914club that says that someone send you a PM, please *DO NOT* reply to the notification message ...
You are getting this *notification* because someone else send you a PM through the forum, *NOT* an email!
if you reply, that reply will end up *in my inbox* instead of in the inbox of the originator of the PM ...

a PM notification email will look like this:

Subject: New Private Message

Andy,
Just whip up a quick script to filter the replies and pipe them to a sticky thread on the board titled "MORON HALL OF FAME".

OK guilty as charged. But officer I had no idea, "Really"

I promise to never reply to this notification on purpose again.

No problem replying to the PM, just don't reply to the notification e-mail you receive...

Posted by: Bruce Allert Nov 24 2004, 01:28 PM

Hey,

Just a suggestion:

If you set up a user account called donotreply, (and disable it - use su from root to get to it) - then you can create a .forward file that uses formail to bounce the email with a message on it. That way you will never have to deal with this problem again. I have some scriptage around if you need it - I bounce everything that fails spamassassin.

Fiid.

If you think this is hard... just try to get some morons to put "FS" or "WTB" in the front of a classified. How many times have we asked? How many places do we list it?

Some days... sheesh...
