There is no such question.

I'm interested in this too...

In template "blog_show_entry" you'll find this:


<if condition="$show['emailentry']">
<a href="blog.php?$session[sessionurl]do=sendtofriend&amp;b=$bloginfo[blogid]"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/blog/email_go.gif" border="0" class="inlineimg" alt="$vbphrase[email_blog_entry]" /></a>
</if>

Where's the checkbox for this setting? Where can this option be set?

As a workaround delete these lines?

To reduce "spamming" this option were nice.

This function works in the same manner as the similar function for the forum. There is no usergroup option for either function.

I also need to disable this feature. It's not available in other parts of my forum and I dont want my smtp server opened upto spam from unregistered people.

The email is enabled for other usergroups, but disabled for guests. I'm not quite sure what you mean freddie by there is no usergroup option for these funtions. There is in the fourm

Did you try deleting those lines and did it work?

For others who may want to disable this feature:

Remove the following code from all blog templates:

<if condition="$show['emailentry']">
<a href="blog.php?$session[sessionurl]do=sendtofriend&amp;b=$bloginfo[blogid]"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/blog/email_go.gif" border="0" class="inlineimg" alt="$vbphrase[email_blog_entry]" /></a>
</if>

This is found in "blog_show_entry". If you do this, guests to your blogs cannot use your board to send spam.
