Email Problems Help Please

I have read and searched the fourms for 2 evenings I need some help please.

 

I am not receiving any emails at all threw the site. No welcome email, orders, contact us, nothing.

 

My host uses sendmail and this is the path to send mail. "/usr/sbin/sendmail" if I knew what file to edit to insert this I think I may be OK but am not able to get that far.

 

My email options settings are set to.

 

E-Mail Transport Method sendmail

E-Mail Linefeeds LF Info

Use MIME HTML When Sending Emails false Info

Verify E-Mail Addresses Through DNS false Info

Send E-Mails true

 

I have tried changing sendmail to smpt and still nothing. I have also ran the email_test contribute and never received an email eithier. I have E-Mail Address,

E-Mail From, Send Extra Order Emails all set with my actual email adress, I have also checked junk mail and have tried other emails. I am not receiving them.

 

Can someone please give me a hand on getting me to be able to receive emails? Thank you

It would be a good idea to ask your host why those mails are not sent, based on that answer you can try to find a solution for your problem.

JUST AN IDEA...

it could be that the emails are being sent... but you are not receiving them.

Have you tried an alternative email address?

 

I know my domain send the emails and my set up reads the same as yours...

 

BUT...

 

I know that people using hotmail and AOL do not receive them.

This i am told is because my smtp server does not send a valid reverse dns response...

IE to tell the receivers I am genuine and it is stopped by filters set up to control spam.

Jim Dugen,

You may want to check and see if you have your php.ini set up correctly...

I hope this helps...

Hi Roman,

 

My host does not grant me access to the php.ini file, however they have said to let them know what I need done to it. So I am trying to pinpoint this problem. Could it be the php.ini file? If so what should the file look like? I get no errors from osC

 

It seems like there are alot of issues with email problems however, none of the post that I have found on the fourm has a soulution or even informs anyone of where the problems could be.

 

I have sent several emails to the host letting them know my email issues with no luck in them helping.

 

What can I do next to trouble shoot this problem???
