An Email Integration Test forum has been created to test posting threads and replies to Talk via email.

Note that this is a beta feature and might still not work perfectly. As with any other betas, usage of the beta feature is at your own risk.

How to use Email Integration
  • To help test the feature, you first need to join the Talk Beta Tester group. Joining this group will let you see the 'Beta Integration Test' forum from the main page. This step was also created to somewhat prevent spammers seeing and posting to the beta forum.
  • To start receiving posts, replying, as well as starting new threads via email, you have to go to your control panel and click on the new 'Edit Forum Subscriptions' option:
  • Look for 'Email Integration Test' and change your subscription to 'Instant notification by email'.
  • To start creating new threads, send an email to: emailintegrationtest (at) talk.maemo.org. It is required that you send the email using the email address you have specified on your member account here at Talk.
  • To reply to a thread, make sure you post your reply on the space provided on the email message:
    Code:
    (Please type your reply below this line!!)
    -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
    
    
    -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
    (Please type your reply above this line!!)
  • Provide feedback on this thread.

A known limitation of this feature is that it might take up to 10 minutes for you to get notified of new posts/replies via email.

Also, since this is still on beta, you will not see new threads / replies under Active Topics.

Thanks!
