We've been using FUD for quite some time now because of it's dual email/web capabilities. It's working fairly well but there are a few quirks I'm really hoping someone can help me with. They are:
1) When I send emails as plain text / html, FUD only displays the plain text version. How do I get it to display only the html version instead?
2) Is there any way to get FUD's email feature to send a posting as if it's "from" the user who posted it, or even just "from" the email address it came from (if it was an eamil posting)? Base don my research so far, I think the answer is "no", but I'm hoping someone knows better.
3) How do you see who is subscribed to a group's email updates?
We're using v2.6.6 (I know, we need to upgrade, but our IT people are very slow).
Thanks in advance.

1) This depends on your e-mail client settings, make it prefer HTML over plain-text.
2) No, you need to modify the source code to accomplish that.
3) Ha? you need to clarify that.

That's what I've been doing with Thunderbird, however our office standard is Eudora which has some odd behavior: if you tell it to send html only, it will only send html only if you have html formatting in the message body. Then there are a few people who use Outlook which sends both plain text and html (with not discernible way to send only html that I can see).
Is there then no way to have FUD prefer the html portion of an email post?

I modified the source to display a subject line that looks more like our old mailman listserv, however I couldn't find where to make this change, can you tell me where it might go?

I'd like to be able to find out who has subscribed for notifications from a forum to make sure certain people are seeing the posts they should be seeing.
