Ok, this is the exact code I've added to the end of the LocalSettings.php file:
################### $wgHooks['AbortNewAccount'][] = 'noMailinator';
function noMailinator( $user, $message ) { if( !preg_match( '/@(mailinator|binkmail).com$/', $user->getEmail() )) { $message = 'One-time-use email services are forbidden on the OpenOffice.org Wiki'; return false; } return true; } ###################
I created a test account using mailinator as the authentication email address, and it went through and accepted the account creation. So... is there any way to trap or see what's happening at this stage? I can't see any reason the function doesn't work (now that I've got the right number of parenthesis). Given my (weak) knowledge of php, it seems to follow what's documented.
The lack of ampersand before $message is likely to be blocking the hook from running (PHP 5.3 is very nitpicking on this). And yes, the original code missed a ), had a ! too much and should have escaped the . inside the regex. It's also a good idea to make it case insensitive (and legal per rfc822).
