Question

I get the following error when I run MailInContrib mailincron, I get: [Fri Jan 12 15:06:24 2007] mailincron: Can't locate object method "findUser" via package "TWiki" at /var/www/twiki/lib/TWiki/Contrib/MailInContrib.pm line 179.

The email address of the user sending the email is in the users wiki page. We do not use a TWiki user database. We use apache authentication and Wiki UserMapping. I have set my default user, user, in LocalSite.cfg. The topic has ALLOWTOPICCHANGE with the wiki name of the user sending the email. Is there a way to get this to work. Can the TWiki user database be manually manipulated so I can add users and email addresses?

If you answer a question - or someone answered one of your questions - please remember to edit the page and set the status to answered. The status selector is below the edit box.

I did get this to work when I matched the case of the email address on the users WikiPage with the address that the email came from.

1. Is there any way to take out the case sensitivity of email addresses when using MailInContrib? Maybe adding lc in the pm somewhere, like done in Users.pm (CaseInsensitiveUserMapping).

2. I there any way to eliminate the "mailincron: Use of uninitialized value in hash element at Meta.pm line 252" error message, which seems like a result of not having email address in the wiki user database.

1. Yes, raise a request in the Bugs database
2. That sounds like a bug in Meta.pm. Please raise a report in the Bugs database
