Kunena 6.3.0 released
The Kunena team has announce the arrival of Kunena 6.3.0 [K 6.3.0] in stable which is now available for download as a native Joomla extension for J! 4.4.x/5.0.x/5.1.x. This version addresses most of the issues that were discovered in K 6.2 and issues discovered during the last development stages of K 6.3
Important [Topic closed by moderator - outdated version] Mail notification broken in 1.5.10!
That was my initial reaction, too, except that a couple of contributions to this discussion have been from long-term users of previous versions of Kunena. It seems that the issue may only be affecting K 1.5.10 installations. We spent a huge amount of time attempting to diagnose problems with K 1.5.8 and K 1.5.9 and it appears that the problems were probably caused by the webhosting provided that the user(s) were using. See Mail not working 1.5.7 ... yes, the issue was raised way back then. The tail-end of that discussion seems to have a strategically-viable option but we're still waiting for a response from the last user involved in that discussion.looks like this is another joomla and not kunena issue ...

Mail continues to work fine from Joomla and other extensions, and always has. Mail was working fine from Kunena 1.5.9 a few minutes before I upgraded to 1.5.10 when it suddenly broke!
I am a moderator and Super Administrator and no longer receive e-mails from Kunena. I removed myself as a moderator and I still do not receive e-mails from Kunena. A normal "Author" level user subscribed to a thread no longer receives e-mails either.

In effect, the suggestion that was offered is to ensure that the Board address used is the same as the domain address used in the Joomla installation. I accept that this may not be the explanation and that the this topic may be unrelated to the other one I've mentioned, but would you please confirm your Kunena settings as described in the other discussion topic. The more that we know, the quicker that we know, about user's configurations, the quicker we may be to solving the matter.

Have you looked at the suggestion/recommendations/tips given in the discussion topic that I referred to, in particular, msg #42150 (and following) in that thread?

Thanks for the direct link to the post in that thread!
I have copied and pasted the e-mail address defined in Joomla's global configuration to Kunena's Board E-mail Address setting, and done some testing, but still no e-mails!
I'll check the thread you have quoted in more depth and reply with my configuration as you suggest.

As I mentioned earlier, Matias wrote to me two days ago that subscriptions were not working at Kunena.com for 24 hours. I was unaware that there might still be a problem (I rarely use the subscription feature myself: I "live" here :laugh:) :SIf I'm subscribed to this thread, shouldn't I be receiving notifications when this thread is updated? I'm not and having to refresh my browser to check.
I've subscribed to this topic to verify if emails are not working for me.

Quick reply to test your subscription :silly:
I'm not sure what version of Kunena we're using here.

The truth is that the only news I have is not good. Thanks for replying. I did not receive an e-mail. This confirms that K 1.5.10 (which is installed here at K.com) has a problem in sending advisory e-mails about new posts made to subscribed topics. It's possible that other e-mail functions performed by Kunena may also be affected.
This rather throws a "spanner in the works" (a spanner = a wrench for US Americans) and, it's difficult under these circumstances to recommend to users to adopt K 1.5.10 because of this fundamental problem. :blush: I am waiting on advice from the development team however, the time lag means that it could be several hours before someone can look at the matter and provide a more definitive statement.
While I have this opportunity, I should also like to say that the Kunena project does not suffer from a shortage of developers. What is lacking, what has always been lacking, is the broader network of dedicated people who are able to take new versions of the software and rigorously subject it to a battery of predefined tests. In fact, the definition of those tests has also been absent. We are trying to address both the matters of extending the number of testers as well as defining the conditions that they need to simulate under controlled conditions. If anyone reading these comments is able to help in either regard, please do so.
In the meantime, life goes on as usual. These forums are visited daily and questions are asked about all manner of things: some of those things have little (if anything) to do with Kunena. It is the role of the moderators here to help users with their daily problems, questions and complaints - not necessarily to solve them but to get the best possible help to the users as quickly as possible and not to impact the work that the developers are doing behind-the-scenes, working on the next version. This, too, is a big job.
All the work that you see here, at Kunena.com, is the work of a dedicated few, of enthusiasts, hobbyists and - above all else - voluntary. This is a team effort and I'm very pleased to be able to contribute in my own way to the work of the team.

I am looking around all files to see if anything is out of the ordinary but nothing sticks out as unusual.

1. After disabling the (Post-subscription checked by default?) and (Allow Subscriptions) in the back end, new threads or topics do not produce the error.
2. If you subscribe to the topic when both the above options are enabled, you do get the error on new topics.
So it seems as though this error "is" related to the (Post-subscription check by default?) and (Allow Subscriptions) options being enabled in the back end.
Hope this helps the Dev Team out.
