• Welcome to BOINC-AUSTRALIA FORUM.

News:

OK that was a fail.  Just spent four hours loading a fresh install of smf and still could not get the mail to run  That is the only problem so far with this install so I am leaving this one as the production install.

Sorry for the delay confusion, but I have had a gut full of Simple Machines Forum software.

Please let me know if you find anything other than mail not working with a PM..

Too bad this is just WCG but it's a start. Maybe Dell will be next?
