Hi All,
Just recently forgotten password email are being rejected as spam by one specific provider, bigpond.com. this is one of Austrelia's largest ISP.

it seems to be the active hyperlink is the problem, as if I manually remove the hyperlink, it seems to work. So, my question is how can I edit the reply email to remove the hyperlink and just have the plain text so the user can copy and paste?

The password reset message sent is formatted in these lines of code in membership_passwordReset.php (line 132 in V22.14)

Code: Select all

			// determine password reset URL
			$ResetLink = application_url("membership_passwordReset.php?key={$key}");

			// send reset instructions
			sendmail([
				'to' => $row['email'],
				'subject' => $Translation['password reset subject'],
				'message' => nl2br(str_replace('<ResetLink>', $ResetLink, $Translation['password reset message'])),
			]);
		}

I imagine you can either edit the $ResetLink variable or the actual 'message' to suit your purpose? You could also edit the 'password reset subject' $translation string to provide extra instruction if you wished to?

Good luck with Bigpond/Telstra. Being a fellow Australian, I feel your pain. I really wish they would stop interfering and deciding what's best for us.

That is the major reason I don't use Telstra, but as you would know the majority do.
Thank you for your prompt reply. But I really require a way to have the link in plain text not as a hyperlink.
