Some Comment Moderation Questions

1.) Even though this seems to be a fairly frequent archive
item, I'm not
having any success with the mentioned fixes for a lack of
email
notification of new comments.  I'm running Blojsom 2.30 w/
Tomcat.  I've
turned on comment moderation and it seems to be working as
my test
comments show up in the for-approval form.  But no email
received (and
no entry for it in the Sendmail log). I'm specifying a
working smtp host
in WEB-INF. Here's, in relevant part, my plugin chain:

...comment-moderation, math-comment-moderation, comment,
trackback,
sendemail...   (any sequencing issues here?)

What am I missing?


2.) I'm not a Vortex wiz, and I'm having
"blank-screen" type problems
wherever I try to paste the 
"#foreach ($entryComment in $entry.getComments())
[etc.]" language
that's supposed to separate the unapproved comments.  My
main template
parses cphi.blog.entries.inc.  

Does somebody have an example that better illustrates where
the language
is supposed to go in context?


Thanks,
    
Paul

Does your SMTP host require authentication? If so, you'll
have to add the
username and password with which to logon to the server.

<init-param>
   
<param-name>smtp-server-username</param-name>
    <param-value>username</param-value>
</init-param>

<init-param>
   
<param-name>smtp-server-password</param-name>
    <param-value>password</param-value>
</init-param>

Try just:

#foreach ($entryComment in $entry.getComments())
    #set ($commentApproved =
$!entryComment.getMetaData().get("BLOJSOM_COMMENT_MODE
RATION_PLUGIN_APPROVED
").equals("true"))
    #if ($commentApproved)
    #end
#end
