3.  BUSINESS-RELATED MAILBOX NAMES

   These names are related to an organization's line-of-business
   activities.  The INFO name is often tied to an autoresponder, with a
   range of standard files available.

   MAILBOX        AREA                USAGE
   -----------    ----------------    ---------------------------
   INFO           Marketing           Packaged information about the
                                      organization, products, and/or
                                      services, as appropriate
   MARKETING      Marketing           Product marketing and
                                      marketing communications
   SALES          Sales               Product purchase information
   SUPPORT        Customer Service    Problems with product or
                                      service

4.  NETWORK OPERATIONS MAILBOX NAMES

   Operations addresses are intended to provide recourse for customers,
   providers and others who are experiencing difficulties with the
   organization's Internet service.

   MAILBOX        AREA                USAGE
   -----------    ----------------    ---------------------------
   ABUSE          Customer Relations  Inappropriate public behaviour
   NOC            Network Operations  Network infrastructure
   SECURITY       Network Security    Security bulletins or queries
   TROUBLE

5.  SUPPORT MAILBOX NAMES FOR SPECIFIC INTERNET SERVICES

   For major Internet protocol services, there is a mailbox defined for
   receiving queries and reports.  (Synonyms are included, here, due to
   their extensive installed base.)

   MAILBOX        SERVICE             SPECIFICATIONS
   -----------    ----------------    ---------------------------
   POSTMASTER     SMTP                [RFC821], [RFC822]
   HOSTMASTER     DNS                 [RFC1033-RFC1035]
   USENET         NNTP                [RFC977]
   NEWS           NNTP                Synonym for USENET
   WEBMASTER      HTTP                [RFC 2068]
   WWW            HTTP                Synonym for WEBMASTER
   UUCP           UUCP                [RFC976]
   FTP            FTP                 [RFC959]

7.  DOMAIN NAME SERVICE ADMINISTRATION MAILBOX

 In DNS (see [RFC1033], [RFC1034] and [RFC1035]), the Start Of
 Authority record (SOA RR) has a field for specifying the mailbox name
 of the zone's administrator.

 This field must be a simple word without metacharacters (such as "%"
 or "!" or "::"), and a mail alias should be used on the relevant mail
 exchanger hosts to direct zone administration mail to the appropriate
 mailbox.

 For simplicity and regularity, it is strongly recommended that the
 well known mailbox name HOSTMASTER always be used
 <HOSTMASTER@domain>.

It worked easily for me. Just need to make the right settings – set the same paths to image folders and keep the original function calls to avatars if you want to use Gravatars when available.


Avatars are turned on the the admin settings?

Do you have this in your template’s post.php:
<?php post_author_avatar_link(); ?>

Also, this appears in profile.php:


<?php if ( $avatar = bb_get_avatar( $user->ID ) ) : ?>
<div id="useravatar"><?php echo $avatar; ?></div>
<?php unset($avatar); endif; ?>

Had to change
<?php post_author_avatar_link(); ?>
to
<?php post_author_avatar(); ?>


It’s a WordPress plugin. And no, you don’t need to install any avatar-upload thing, or indeed any other extra plugin to get this to work.

The function works both on WordPress and bbPress, but since it is a WordPress plugin (and thus a WordPress function) you will need to make WordPress functions available to bbPress. This is covered in the Integration with WordPress page in the bbPress documentation (see the last section, “Functions”).

I hope this clears things up a little.

Download Windows Media Player 11


unzip wmp11-windowsxp-x86-enu.exe to a folder


First run: wmfdist11.exe

This is the media player 11 runtime files.

Go through the installation wizard and then run: wmp11.exe

This will in turn install Windows Media Player 11 and will bypass the activation part of the installer.
