Re: [Phpwebsite-developers] users complaints about lack of support

[Joel K. <jo...@kl...>]

phpBB2 doesn't support threading or email posting.  The former is nearly 
impossible, but the latter might be doable, though I would think if 
developers really wanted it, phpWS would already have such a feature.

Really, what's so hard about using the web?  I for one wouldn't want 50 
email a day just from a tech support list... especially considering 50%+ 
are going to be the same 3 questions.
