What version of UBB are you using? It has been awhile since I messed with UBB. I know that in versions prior to 5.31, the email notification only included a brief message.

Anyway, here is stab in the dark:

In postings.cgi, find the following codes:

Code:
$sendto = "$topicw[2]";
chomp($sendto);
$subject = "Notification: Reply to Your BB Topic";
$message = "Hello, \n\r\n $UserName has just replied to your topic entitled - $TopicSubject - in the $Forum forum of $BBName. \n\r\n This BB is located at $CGIU
RL/Ultimate.cgi";

Delete "entitled - $TopicSubject".

This will only send the following message to your BBS end users:

Quote:
Hello, $UserName has just replied to your topic in the $Forum forum of $BBName.This BB is located at $CGIURL/Ultimate.cgi.

This should work.

Remember, before modifying the postings.cgi file, make sure that you save a back-up of the file.

Regards,
