rthrash Posted January 22, 2003 Share Posted January 22, 2003 Everything appears to be set up right, and we can send e-mails with a simple test script such as: <?php mail('[email protected]','test mail','did it come?'); ?> However, no matter if the mail is set up to go out via SMTP or Sendmail, with send e-mails set to true under OSC 2.2 CVS, no mails go out when signing up for accounts or making purchases or from the admin mail functions. The notification bar at the top of the admin page even says that mail goes out. Any suggestions? Ryan Thrash Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christian Lescuyer Posted January 22, 2003 Share Posted January 22, 2003 Did you configure the "E-Mail From" in admin? Christian Lescuyer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rthrash Posted January 23, 2003 Author Share Posted January 23, 2003 Yes and it is a valid e-mail account that we're sending from. Ryan Thrash Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rthrash Posted January 23, 2003 Author Share Posted January 23, 2003 :oops: Upon further investigation it has turned out to be an error in the DNS of the mail server. The mail server that was being used had no DNS entry and as such, the mail it was trying to send was being rejected due to reverse DNS lookups on the mail server. Thanks for your help.

Guest Posted February 6, 2003 Share Posted February 6, 2003 the problem was fixed... the common question: How? the problem was totally arosen from the php.ini file... while using php for windows, the only line remaining in the php.ini will be sendmail_from = [email protected] the smtp, SMTP_PORT lines should be commented.
