:D
Aprelium,

shouldn't you do your phpbb software a favor and add a
text wrap function to it to keep people from screwing up
the posts?... whats funny is phpbb has the tables set at a certain width and height but when someone wants to be an a**hole they could make the board look real nasty because the people that code phpbb failed to place a text wrap function in their software to keep the textarea input from beating up the table its printed to...

Just a dumb question :(

all you would have to do is add something like this to the script posting.php

function message($message) {

$message = preg_replace ("/([^\s]{50,})/e", "''.wordwrap('\\1', 50, ' ', 1).''", $message);

return $message;

}

and make sure you call the function...

under GENERAL ADMIN
in CONFIGURATION
under EMAIL SETTINGS
there is a spot for your smtp server
where it says admin email put your email addy there

where it says smtp server address you need to put
localhost
but be sure you are running a smtp server locally on your box.
if you dont have one on your server download 1st smtp server
at http://www.emailarms.com
