With it’s email-only interaction capability, will this Discourse platform be a replacement for our soon-to-be defunct mailing list management system, OnlineGroups.Net? I think it could be… What do others think.
Suspect there’s a configuration issue… yes - I haven’t set up the full configuration of the uncategorised topic… doing that now.
In other news: I’ve created the discourse@nzoss.nz mailbox and set up the reply submission to use discourse+%{reply_key}@nzoss.nz as the email…
I’ve added an alias to discourse@nzoss.nz, based on this post, of reply@ and reconfigured the ‘reply by email address’ setting to be reply+%{reply_key}@nzoss.nz.
Yes, since I originally posted my most recent comment above, I realised that I’d got the wrong end of the stick… and I’ve now configured the uncategorised category to be a ‘mailing list’ style category, with the discourse@nzoss.nz email.

Hmm, starting to think that having a dedicated email domain might be the proper way to do this.
E.g. feedback@community.nzoss.nz meetup@community.nzoss.nz etc
But lets not get ahead of ourselves and get this test running first!
Aha, I see you already got it going, with everything going to Uncategorized
Yes, that’s right, for testing purposes. Happy to set up community.nzoss.nz for email…
