Just a little permissions/access issue. I thought I had this one nailed before, but I'm attempting to have posts sent to a specific user@mybbs posted to a sub.

I have configured my alias.cfg with a line

username sub:internal_code.

When I post an email to that sub, I get a "550 insufficient permission" error. I've allowed access level 0 to post to the sub, as well as globally allowing user level 0 to post 1000 posts/day (more than I'll need). What else am I missing?

Hm... Does user level 0 have acess to the message group? Does it have read access to the sub-board as well?

OK, group access has no restrictions. I did have a flag restriction on sub access, have added level = 0 to that. Read access was unrestricted. Just about to test. :)

Yep, that worked, thanks. :) One to keep in mind. :)
