E-mail from GameSpy
To those with more technical knowledge than me: Is this why board e-mails aren't getting sent? If so, this makes me feel even better about pursuing a move.

I doubt this would be why. VB uses sendmail by default, which to my knowledge has nothing to do with CGI or Formmail.

Why does this make you more inclined to pursue a move - sounds to me like IGN is finally spending some time addressing shortcomings in their servers. I don't know the difference between CGI and PHP, and I don't know the extent to which vBulletin functions we've grown accustomed to require either or both, but it seems to me that if IGN is continuing to fix the dynamic servers to make them less vulnerable, and we continue to get free hosting from them despite a high level of traffic, I'm uncertain why we are seriously considering a move. Seems like a case of "the grass is greener" syndrome which could well end up biting us in the butt big-time. |

For what it's worth I will check my site tonight and see if there is anything I can think of as to why mail isn't working within VB for you guys.

This won't have anything to do with the email problem. Dangarion is correct in his assumptions, and I think I am closing in on the problem.

I think the email problem is probably with our mailbox. I have asked someone to take a look at it. As for the other problems, I am hopeful that they will be fixed them by the weekend but it would be stupid to get too confident.
