Hi,

I am having problems in setting up my RForum to post messages via email.

I have read Linking a Forum to a Mailing List 
http://www.ruby-forum.com/topic/52254#new and it helped a lot. I can 
post messages  in RForum and it will auto-mail it to my mailing list 
(googlegroups). The problem I have right now is how can I post messages 
from my email to RForum.

This is what I have done so far
1. updated list_address of forums table, list_address = 
mygroups@googlegroups.com
2. updated site.rb:
   :deliver_mail => true,
   :bounce_address => 'myemail@mydomain.com', where myemail@mydomain.com 
is member of mygroups@googlegroups.com
3. Run: ruby scipt/process_mail Maildir 1, where Maildir is the location 
of emails in my domain

When I run the process_mail, it goes thru the inbox, sent and thrash 
items but it puts 'Skipping File .... ' error.

am i on the right track? i tried different configurations but to no 
avail. sorry but i am quite new to this and any help will be greatly 
appreciated.

thanks!
