Problem:  There is a bug that makes private mail sent from mambo forum appears without
          reply-to address.

Solution: There is a code in forum/privateEmail.php that needs to be editted.
          Please backup your original privateEmail.php file before making any changes.

Hack:     1) Open the file privateEmail.php
          2) Search for code:

			$sessionID=$HTTP_COOKIE_VARS["forumusercookie"];
			$sessionID=md5($sessionID);
			$query="select username from session where session_id='$sessionID'";
			$result=$database->openConnectionWithReturn($query);
			list ($sendername)=mysql_fetch_array($result);

			$emailHTML->emailForm($author, $authorid, $sendername, $usercookie, $forumid);
             
          3) Replace it with following code:

			$sessionID=$HTTP_COOKIE_VARS["forumusercookie"];
			$sessionID=md5($sessionID);
			$query="select username, userid from session where session_id='$sessionID'";
			$result=$database->openConnectionWithReturn($query);
			list ($sendername, $senderid)=mysql_fetch_array($result);

			$emailHTML->emailForm($author, $authorid, $sendername, $senderid, $forumid);

          4) Done
