    Hi Folks,

    I'm sure in previous versions of amember, when I edited a members email address via the amember admin panel the email address stored on file in the Vbulletin address would be changed.

    I noticed recently, after using vbulletin to send emails to all users because of issues with amembers being able to do it in V3 (incompatable with SPF records) that some emails bounched bank.

    Theres 3.5k members so i never expected a smooth ride but when I looked into the bounced emails I found the email was different to the one in amember, I checked and found the member had changed there email address, changed it in amember and no update happened in Vbulletin.

    I've checked my setting etc and see no problems but it used to work a while ago when I had the older version installed.


    Secondly, Has anybody got SPF records installed on there DNS server? Has it affected in any way the newsletter from sending emails. with 3.5 k members, since I have installed SPF records I can only send about 1k emails before I get a page can not be found and the script stops running. I never had a problem before.

    Regardless of everything, I advice you to rebuild your database. This will refresh all the records and bring them in tune, which needs to be done, especially in cases when the entire databases gets unsynchronised.

    I smell that even my database is a bit foul smelling and do not dare to rebuild as it takes ages.
