Re: [Homebrew_PCBs] Starting a phpBB forum homebrewpcbs - msg from listowner

Look at the m2f (NOT cm2f) mod for phpBB. If set up correctly it will 
seamlessly integrate email and on-line forum. Posts made on the forum 
can also be sent out as emails. Received emails will be posted on the 
forum exactly as if they were posted on-line. It uses several tricks to 
keep track of threads.

You can also integrate it with the existing Yahoo site so posts made to 
the Yahoo site appear as posts on the forum and vice-versa. It takes a 
bit of fiddling around to get it to work properly. You must use the 
latest release candidate for this function.

This moves the raw source file on disk only. The archive index is not changed automatically, so you still need to run a manual refresh afterward.
