No answer???

Still no answer?????

Jim, we'll investigate this, it shouldn't be the case.

Sorry for answering with delay. Elgg.org was attacked by spam bots lately. Since my email was posted there, my account is flooded with spam. My spam filter couldn't handle it, sending many messages to spam box. Since I get 600 spam messages per day, it's hard to find all relevant. I'm working on a fix right now.

Jim, you were right, there was a bug in the forum plugin. New version with bugfix was just uploaded.

Thanks Mike! I am having the same spam problem - it tends to make one a bit fractious...
