Hi to all,

I have install the oscommerce on my server. Everythinks works fine, but I can't understand where I'll confugure email option...such as ini file to put smtp server or somethinks else...

I see the configuration page, on email page, but i only choose the mail method to use (sendmail or smtp) but how I configure it?

 

Thanks a lot in advance....

Hallo!

 

I had the same question, but capturing some packets on my firewall, I found out that the mail server used, depends on the domain name of the email user you are trying to reach. OsCommerce seems to be trying to use yahoo mail servers if the destination account is on yahoo, or hotmail mail servers if the destination acount is on hotmail. What I also found out is that if the mail is not sent, it will probably try to reach another yahoo or hotmail mail server after a period of time... e.g. 3-4 minutes.

 

Cool!

 

Kind regards,
