♥Vger Posted June 7, 2005 Share Posted June 7, 2005 The SMTP server in osCommerce is set to 'localhost', so you really need to use e-mail addresses that are based on your domain e.g. sales@yourdomain - and not an outside e-mail address. If nothing else, if you use an outside e-mail address then that's 'relaying' and will get most of your outgoing e-mails blocked by incoming mail servers.

Vger <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I appreciate what you are saying, but I am still none the wiser as to what to do.....or where I should go to change any settings. I am only using domain suffixes, and other programs use SMTP on this server with no problems. Any hints would be great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
