CB "Public Mail" plugin enables visitors and unregistered users on your site to email the registered users directly from their CB profile page through a small contact form that can be styled and customized.

The plugin is great if your CB profiles are companies, teachers, artists, musicians, shops, vendors, suppliers etc. or you simply want to let site visitors contact sites users/profiles without being registered.

The registered users' email address may be kept secret if wanted, and it is possible to save all emails sent by users in the database, thereby also registering the sending IP. Also, a copy of a sent email can be sent to the submitter along with a "thank you" email, if wanted. This CB plugin has support for CB Captcha and can be configured/styled a lot!

Thanks, the new version is MUCH better.
The Public Mail 1.2 does work with CB 1.2, BUT there is a bug in CB that currently prevents the installer from working. To fix this simply open the Public Mail installer XML and change the version numer of the plugin to 1.1 or less. Eg.: "1.1". Otherwise you will have to wait for the next CB release where this is hopefully fixed.

Does work, but no cpatcha for CB 1.1

I got it to work, yet there is no possibilities for a captcha for CB 1.1 (the only captcha we can use with it is the 2.2 version which is not compatible with CB1.1).

...Quite dangerous to use public email forms with no protections...

Excellent plugin, but fails to install on CB 1.2 RC 4 and J 1.5.8

Excellent plugin, I have seen it working. Unfortunately I can't install it. I'm using J 1.5.8 and CB 1.2 RC 4. I downloaded it and when trying to install it, I got this message: Error! Could not find a Joomla! XML setup file in the package.

Please, help. Thanks!

Perfect for my application. Is there a way to 'cc' all emails sent to a common admin address??
