Question New Posts email notification in a read-only forum!

Hello "810". First at all thank you very much for checking this!

Please find attached the configuration report. The only change which I did the past hours was to disable the auto email notifications. At the time it was set on I got spam mails but for the moment not.

In general everybody can display but only registered people (+manager/super user) can open topics or write answers.

Now it's 1 am in the morning here and maybe I became blind or to tired but can't find the log section. Where exactly in "configuration is it" ?

1) please update blue eagle template to 1.5.0 RC3
2) config - users- Define if you want to log action or moderation set to "Yes"
3) Which category setting do you use: access level or usergroups

Hello,

1.) I will update to blue eagle 1.5.0 RC3 today night. PS: Is there any way to get an auto reminder like for other new software versions ?
2.) It's now activated
3.) It's user group based. Typically all is handled by "Registered user"

I also attached a sample of these spam mails. Since yesterday afternoon I did not get any new spams so far.

Regards
-Dirk

Here is my report. I use access level.

I keep you posted here if I still receive spam or if everything is okay.

Thank you for your support !
