Hello I would like to ask some questions I wonder if I can install phpbb in helliohost?

will the user confirmation emails and retrieving password emails be a problem?

another question I plan to connect my forum to my twitter account, so every time a new topic is open the topic title will be sent to twitter, could this be a problem? I will use a twitter app not emails and my forum will not be very active, and answers to topics are not twitted

The twitter won't be an issue assuming it doesn't need anything special like special ports.

 

The emails it generates can get you suspended rather easily though. You can send at most 50 per day for your entire account.

 

Password reset emails should be fine, but account activation mails (even if you don't expect a lot of users, since these are generated for spambots too), new post/followed topic notifications, etc. could easily generate a lot mail. I'd disable these functions or use an external mail server for them.
