No Email Working What-so-ever - Please Help

Recommended Posts

Hi,

 

I am having a lot of difficulty sending and receiving email from OSC. Have not been able to get any order or account confirmations either. I have read many of the forum topics where people have been able to send emil to customers from the admin panel, but even this is not working. I have set it up properly in admin and checked a lot of code and cannot find the problem. The set up and files seem to be ok, there are no errors that suggest otherwise.

 

There has been a lot of discussion on this topic and no resolution posted. Is there anyone out there who has been able to get this working successfully? Please could you share your solution with the rest of us, pretty please..

 

I have a Host account with CPanel and am running a SQL DB on Windows server. These are the Email Options:

 

E-Mail Transport Method: sendmail

E-Mail Linefeeds: LF

Use MIME HTML When Sending Emails: false

Verify E-Mail Addresses Through DNS: false

Send E-Mails: true

 

Any help would really be appreciated. It has been a long journey to get this far.

 

Thanks

From the instructions iin admin->Configuration->E-Mail Options->E-Mail Transport method,

Defines if this server uses a local connection to sendmail or uses an SMTP connection via TCP/IP. Servers running on Windows and MacOS should change this setting to SMTP.

Download the email test pacakge in the contribution section, install and run it. That will determine if the problem is in your shop or on the server.

Go to the contribution section and search for email test. Upload and run it. It will show if the problem is due to the server or not. If it is, then send godaddy a link to it and ask them to fix it.
