   Plugin could not be activated because it triggered a fatal error.

   Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING, expecting T_OLD_FUNCTION or T_FUNCTION or T_VAR or '}' in /homepages/27/d234669382/htdocs/gabsworld/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/mailpress/MailPress.php on line 218

   Me too, with version 2 and WP2.7.

   Version 2 is only downloadable from the MailPress web site, so I'm doubly annoyed, as I had to go find a program to unpack the .rar file...

   I also got this error during a wordpress installation on remote server.

   Anyways, lets cut to the chase: I found that the remote server i was trying to install Mailpress on runs on PHP version 4.4.7 and MailPress.php actually needs at least PHP version 5 because of the use of a public static function on line 118(MailPress.php) PHP versions below 5 uses var instead.

   You can check what PHP version you're running by the help of the PHP test <?php
   phpinfo();
   ?>

   Hope this helps (it did help me:-)
