I was going to request this, but spotted that it had already been raised.
It seems a shame that a well-used feature like "Thank You" cannot add more value. If each time a user was thanked, a counter was incremented and that was displayed by their avatar at each post, then that would allow members to add weight to that user's comments. It would also add some healthy competition - people are competitive on forums and want to be seen to achieve certain levels - being thanked by their peers is a very democratic way of achieving this.
Here is an example of how this looks on another forum (diynot.com, but many forums have "upvotes" / "thanks", etc for their members);

@xobor The problem is in the headers within our sites, and the references they are making to global101.css and script101.js
The links (which we don't believe we can change?) in the HEAD element are set to (I can't include the full paths as I'm not allowed to add links in this post);
At the end of that post, I said; "Actually... thinking about this, and having written similar software in the past, my bet is that it's the library that they are using to generate the thumbnails - it must be stripping the orientation meta data from the image when it generates the thumbnail."
Sorry, Alice - after I type the last post it occurred to me that the "Secure: no" statement meant we were not authenticating correctly. I've updated my mail client to authenticate using TLS and it works now.
If anyone else has a similar issue in the future, then there are two requirements;
1) You need to have the account set to "post office box" 2) You need to set your mail client to authenticate
We changed the account from 'forwarding' to 'post office box' and, as I suspected, we can now connect via POP3.
However I still get a "Relay access denied" error when trying to send email to homepagemodules.de using our domain name. Does your mail service support sending emails from our own domain?
For your reference, here is the SMTP log of the failed connection. I've starred out the password but do note that the same credentials work fine for the POP3 connection;
