Day 2 of the Joomla 1.7 Deployment - Today we are cleaning up the user database. Some emails that are autogenerated via the Vemod News Mailer are bouncing back. Several emails were to @mail.ru addresses (captcha was down for a day or two). The easiest way to clean up your user database occurs in some very simple steps. First thing we did, shut down registration for the site - don't want this table to update while we are migrating the database.Next, we used the Joomla administration system to filter for particular email addresses Site>User Manager, entered the bouncing email addresses into the filter field and deleted the users from the system.Fifteen minutes later, we have a clean user database and are ready to begin mapping users to the new ACLs in Joomla 1.7.
