Can't send emails

[ckole]

I am on a hosted account in a windows environment so I can't control the php.ini file. My server won't send emails. I have tried a variety of contributions including, SMTP Authentication V1.2, and I can't get it to work. I don't get any errors but I also don't get any emails. Does anyone else know of any workarounds? I know my hosting company requires authentication for email and I have this set up in the SMTP Auth script.

 

Thanks,

Chris

Some hosting companies (mainly Windows) don't provide outgoing mail facilities based on your domain. Can you set up e-mail addresses on your domain and both send and receive e-mail via your computers' e-mail programme?

would the situation you describe result in the following errors:

Warning: mail(): Failed to connect to mailserver at "localhost" port 25, verify your "SMTP" and "smtp_port" setting in php.ini or use ini_set() in d:\hshome\wwdcctv\wwdcctv.co.uk\catalog\includes\classes\email.php on line 500

 

Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at d:\hshome\wwdcctv\wwdcctv.co.uk\catalog\includes\classes\email.php:500) in d:\hshome\wwdcctv\wwdcctv.co.uk\catalog\includes\functions\general.php on line 29

 

if not can you help?
