EFM broken on the new Genesis class servers

[Grant]

Hi all,

We're early adopters on a new Genesis class managed server, and although the upgrade from the old server went pretty well all things considered, there is a problem with EFM - Email Filter Manager - http://diamond-back.com/software/efm/

By default, the software is broken because it uses "$HTTP_*_VARS type predefined variables" which is deprecated, so Terra doesn't want to enable it - understandably. However, the result is that the front-end of the software doesn't work - you can't get past the login screen.

Terra has enabled it on ours so it works, but it's not a desirable situation.

Lots of us on FQ use EFM I believe, so the question is will EFM be upgraded to work without the "$HTTP_*_VARS type predefined variables"?

I've also written Thomas, the original author.

thanks for any thoughts/ comments!

Thanks for the heads-up, Grant. The depreciated "$HTTP_*_VARS" have been replaced with Superglobals, this should fix the problem on the new servers (and old ones as well if/when they are updated). The updated version has been posted at http://diamond-back.com/software/efm/ - all that should be required is to replace the index.php file in the EMF directory.

I've been running it for a couple of days, and works fine, so big thanks to Tom!
