Aol Users Fail To Receive Emails

[tty]

My customers using AOL servers receive no emails from either admin panel or when they create accounts.

Other customer email account (like gmail-yahoo etc) work fine.

 

I understand this happens because there is an error in email.php file.

This doesn't send a return path address and because of it servers like AOL refuse to let the mail in.

 

I appreciate any answer.

 

PS: I tried the AOL fix contribution and doesn't work for me.

tty,

Contact AOL and inform them of this...they will check your site out and if you pass as being

a valid site they will let your mail through...

I hope this helps

Thanks for your input.

First I'll try to find a way to use smtp and a specific account on the server with authentification.

If it doesn't work I'll contact aol, but I don't think they'll bother.

Hi, dunno if this will work for you/ AOL email but worth a try.

 

1) Go to email settings in Admin, Configuration, My Store, Email from:

2) change [email protected] <[email protected]>

to

mysite <[email protected]>

 

I had a problem with hotmail, they said I was faking the email-from name, which I wasn't, and always classed my mail as spam. I changed this setting in admin and now all fine. Always worth a try.

 

Hope it works
