Since it's late and I just pooped myself...thought I'd broken apache and php.

Could people who know how and have control over there entire pop account setup register a valid user (please use a test user id say test10) with a valid pop3 account. Set email notification to instant for thread subscriptions.

Make a post by test10

Then make the testuser email invalid, that is so our subscription mail will bounce.

Then make a post and reply with your main account, so test10 shoudl get an update, but of course we know it will bounce...

Hopefully that will trigger the bounce process and I'll find out tomorrow night, and the test user will get a pm about 23:30 tomorrow...

Thanks in advance, only needs one or two people to try this, please post if your doing so as to avoid confusion. tip: two browsers make this easier.

I'll test it now....

Okay done.. User test20 should give you a few hiccups
