Announcement Problem

[LiNuX]

Lately You haven't been getting announcement or update emails from this forum, that's because we were having some issues with the system.

Every time I send out emails, the forum's folder kicks me out and locks itself in giving us a 403 error. I have to reupload all files to fix it. But right now I think the issue has been fixed but I am not a 100% sure.

I wanted to get some feedback from you guys on whether I should send out the planned update tomorrow and try it out. If we disappear it won't be more than 30 minutes and otherwise we may not ever know if it'll work.

Feed back appreciated.

Damn this forum's got/had so many problems. I never really pay any attention to many of the announcements so I never new about this problem until I read this. Good luck fixing this now linux

didnt have a problem before - but im having the vbulletin staff check the email script - its not a huge issue, email announcements arent necessary for the forum and it shouldn't be something too huge for the vb staff

i'd do it myself but i get no specific error and im not too familiar with the email script as i am to other scripts on the forum
