hulkster Posted June 22, 2004 Posted June 22, 2004 Hi, I am running and testing my oscommerce shop from my localhost atm, and have a problem that none of "Tell a friend" , "Contact us" or any other oscommerce action that send emails , is actualy sending the emails. I tried several email addresses, nothing, no emails recieved. I tried updating in admin section for "Smtp" method....still nothing... How to solve this? Hulkster
adrian_s Posted June 22, 2004 Posted June 22, 2004 Speak to your host... I was on Windows 2003, and I had the same problem (there are posts on this topic elsewhere, but nothing they suggested seemed to do the trick). I'd been tearing my hair out about this same problem ever since installing osCommerce. I think it was an authentication issue, but not completely sure. Finally I decided to go for the "nuclear option" and switched to a Linux machine so I could use Sendmail - drastic maybe, but now it works... and if there's no ASP on your site, why not? Undoubtedly it *could* have been sorted out by other methods so if anyone does have the solution, hopefully they'll post it so you can say "aha" and I can say "doh" :D Adrian
