The text of the reply is shown below:


It has become really confusing where we are supposed to submit problems with vBridge - here or wh-solutions. Please make this clear.


I have installed vBridge with latest Mambo and vBulletin 3.0.8. Everything seemed to install fine.


However, when I login from vBulletin, it logs me in to mambo but not vbulletin. Also after logging in from vBulletin it returns me to my mambo home page and the forum disappears.


Also, logout fails in mambo, saying I am logged in to a private area of the site.


I can also no longer log in to my mambo administrator area. I bought vBulletin because vBridge was available - =A382. And instead I have a completely broken website. This isn't even Beta software let alone a release candidate.


What is the problem =3F

Another one

http://forum.opensourcematters.org/inde ... icseen#new


Went and found where it should go:

http://forum.opensourcematters.org/inde ... ml#msg3248

Looks like "/" gets replaced with "=3F"
And "," gets replaced with "=3D"

So top link should be:
http://forum.opensourcematters.org/inde ... icseen#new

That seems to get to the correct thread.

Perhaps something going on with the SEF?

Your client or this server seems to be dropping the very important:

Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable

Being sent along with that message.  Quoted printable is used for any message which contains unicode characters, and in it things like = and ? are escaped.  Surely you've seen the =20's in mail messages at the end of lines, for example.

Specifically, it's the £ that caused SMF to send in quoted printable.  Still, Eudora should support it fine, which leads me to the server - which, if qmail, has a problem the next beta release has a work around for.
