Another Problem with forum-email gateway (1.8.1)

> I was experienceing the same problems when I used this, and I wonder if the best solution to the first problem described wouldn't be to simply not save the posts made to Tiki directly in the DB when an in and out addresses are set, assuming Tiki will catch mail from the mailing-list. At least, provide an option to do so.
Here's another problem with the forum used for the email gateway, while we're listing them: Each topic in my forum with email gateway gets the "Use this thread for discussing the page" description that is meant to be reserved for a wiki page discussion forum.
What I mean is that Tiki has a function to discuss particular wiki pages in a forum. When you click on "discuss" at the bottom of a wiki page you will, if the feature is turned on (on the Tiki admin page), be sent to a forum where a new topic is created with that wiki page's name. Well, even if I turn off this feature, the topics in my email gateway forum have that information printed at the top, with the email topic used as the wiki page name. This is rather bizarre. The email topic in the description becomes a link to a wiki page with the same name, which of course doesn't exist. Why does Tiki think a forum that has an email gateway configured is a wiki pages discussion forum?
