schiznotty Posted April 22, 2004 Posted April 22, 2004 I posted this question in the past but nobody was able to assist me. Hopefully someone out there can help out, it's driving me up the wall. I am running osCommerce 2.2ms2, php 4.3.4 and mySQL 4.0.18 on a Windows system. I cannot get osCommerce to email out anything (either via an order or the Contact Us page) under any circumstance. I have tried several SMTP mail programs and numerous settings in both my php.ini and osCommerce admin with no success. I am currently running Mdaemon on the same server as my osCommerce site, so my php.ini file looks like this... [mail function] ; For Win32 only. SMTP = localhost (I also tried the IP Address of my mail server) ; For Win32 only. sendmail_from = [email protected] I also set the osCommerce setting "Sendmail" to "true" and told it to use "SMTP." The most frustrating part for me is that I get NO email errors from osCommerce. I get an immediate successful notice from osCommerce, but the mail message never arrives at my SMTP server. I know the SMTP server works for other php applications because I also have a phpBB2 running on the same system and it sends out emails with no problems. This leads me to believe that I have something configured incorrectly in osCommerce. Please help! I'm going crazy! Thanks, SM
schiznotty Posted April 22, 2004 Author Posted April 22, 2004 Also, if nobody has any ideas about how to get the SMTP to work, I have the ability to setup a Linux box. Does anyone recommend a good mail program I can use for a Linux box that will work easily with osCommerce? Are there any special setup requirements to get it to work? Thanks. SM
zzfritz Posted April 22, 2004 Posted April 22, 2004 I also set the osCommerce setting "Sendmail" to "true" and told it to use "SMTP." This is probably the confusion. In Admin -> Configuration -> E-mail Options, set E-mail Transport Method to SMPT (not sendmail). The other setting in that list, which I guess you were referring to, is Send E-Mails and it should be set true.
schiznotty Posted April 22, 2004 Author Posted April 22, 2004 You're right, I did mean Send E-Mails. I typed it wrong. Thanks.
schiznotty Posted April 22, 2004 Author Posted April 22, 2004 Somebody recommended that I try an email_test.php file so I placed it in my web root directory, executed it and it appeared to go through but still no email. Maybe this is another clue as to what my problem is. Thanks.
schiznotty Posted April 23, 2004 Author Posted April 23, 2004 I GOT A FIX FOR MY PROBLEM! Somebody in another osCOmmerce support forum provided me with a modification to the email.php files in osCommerce that have solved my problem. I'll provide them here and hopefully be able to help someone else out there having the same problem I did. Download the Zip file and read the "readme" file carefully. It's all in there. http://69.19.189.145/smtp.zip Thanks, SM
schiznotty Posted May 17, 2004 Author Posted May 17, 2004 unseen, The SMTP file you need is located at the link in my last post up above. The SMTP.zip file. Thanks.

schiznotty Posted May 19, 2004 Author Posted May 19, 2004 What are you using for an SMTP server? Are you hosting or is it ISP hosted?

Northwind Posted September 19, 2004 Posted September 19, 2004 If I have formmail.cgi - how do I implement that with this?
Guest Posted November 21, 2004 Posted November 21, 2004 I am having the same problem, and I tried to download the smtp.zip file, but it is no longer at this url. Can you please email me a copy to [email protected], or post a new copy here? Thanks, ZG I GOT A FIX FOR MY PROBLEM!

♥Vger Posted November 21, 2004 Posted November 21, 2004 Most hosting companies ban any scripts called 'formmail' from operating on their servers. It's the first name that spammers/hackers look for. Should be okay if it's renamed though. Vger If I have formmail.cgi - how do I implement that with this? <{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Guest Posted December 31, 2004 Posted December 31, 2004 for using windows with oscommerce, the smtp server doesnt like the alias: No: Customer Service <[email protected]> Yes: [email protected] and the header error just seems to disappear
