PM through Email

[Ermok]

simply enough, when someone sends you a pm, it gets sent to your email instead.. to save space in your inbox
=)
I really like this idea.. because it could reduce serverload? I think xD
And also out wont run out of space...

got a script for it?

[Igzz]

Ugh, I sort of don't like this idea because then your email will get crammed with PM's, like this, it's all organized and easy to use. If you could get a script that sends PM's to your email after your Inbox is full here, that would be a good idea though.

[Ermok]

No I don't have a script for it.. I could try to find one though =/

[warsheep]

The script for it wouldn't be that hard, would it?
if inboxspace = inboxlimit
then (The message sent) = $message
smpt (SMPT server thing here) $message
endif

Well, I know that the code above will not work. But, its just to get things in perspective. I like it as it is, but I'd like a option to enable/disable a feature like this, because it would be great if you have a service where PMs can be helpful (For requests and stuff)

Though, the real code would have to be much more advanced then the one above, we'd have to get the DB info to find out what email to send to, and get from who, and etc.

This feature isn't that far from the subscribe to a thread feature...

Anyways, if a script for this can be found, I'd say yes.

i would hate to have my pm sent to my email as it would fill it up and i can easily remove from here

[EmiloZ]

I don't like this idea. I would HATE to get my mail inbox filled up whit PM's

[Ermok]

I would love it.. maybe an option in usercp?

[ReidE96]

I agree with the option for it in user cp, and that it should only be when your PM box is full. With regards to the script, it would be roughly like this:

<?php
if currentmessages = message limit
    mail(toaddress,subject,message)
?>

Obviously with appropriate values called for the variables (and $ at the start of the strings, they vanished when I had them in

eh.. i dont see it reducing server load..
server would need to verify e-mail address with username with recipient and then to the recipients e-mail address..
