Because of the amount of subscribers, it's queued up and delivered in batches. Currently it has only been sent to 7% of subscribers.

We do this to help prevent the server being blacklisted by spam detection programs.

Didn't think about that actually Thanks for the clarification. I actually came across the update as I clicked on Dennis Tsang's website to view the wordpress-mybb bridge.

That's got to be the easiest update ever

Two forums in under 5 mins including getting the file and reading the instructions.

any problem?
why MyBB vuln checker says this:

There is only a problem if any files are listed below those areas like in the sample.

The one running on the community forums has been modified so it detects some sample files I created - that is why it lists two files here.

Because yours didn't list any files then you're safe.
