Account Creation Email

Hello,

 

I was testing my site today and ran into an error. I setup an account and used an email address (personal) and waited to for the Welcome Email. However, after about thirty minutes of waiting, I went to my business email and found that it was sent back undeliverable. I tried several different email addresses with different ISPs, with no avail.

 

Has anyone else had this problem? How was it fixed?

 

This is the default .PHP file being used...no modifications.

 

Thanks in advance for your help!

Here is an example of the returned email:

 

This message was created automatically by mail delivery software.

 

A message that you sent could not be delivered to one or more of its recipients. This is a permanent error. The following address(es) failed:

 

[email protected]

unrouteable mail domain "xxx.com"

 

------ This is a copy of the message, including all the headers. ------

 

Return-path: <[email protected]>

Received: from nobody by svr14.edns1.com with local (Exim 4.24)

To: "***" <[email protected]>

Subject: Welcome to BWD And Associates

From: "***" <[email protected]>

MIME-Version: 1.0

X-Mailer: osCommerce Mailer

Make any sense? :-) I am using the default program PHP file. I am guessing the PHP file has the "sendmail" function, but I could be wrong <---not a programmer :-)

 

Thanks for your reply and future assistance!

if it does it with all emails it's configred wrong. Make sure it's set up correctly in the admin cpanel. Other than that I would reload the php files in question and start those from scratch :huh:

If you have access to WHM (CPanel users), go to "Tweak Settings" and find the line that says "Prevent the user 'nobody' from sending out mail to remote addresses (php and cgi scripts generally run as nobody if you are not using phpsuexec and suexec respectively.)"

 

Uncheck this box. Else, we shall have to find a way to make osCommerce run as someone else using phpsuexec. Tested and works for me :)

You Can Really Taste The W00t!

I've looked over my CPanel and can't seem to find the "Tweak Settings" that you mentioned... I've searched for this problem in the Forum and found many options... Sounds like your idea of "Nobody" may be it... How can I find the option you mentioned??? Tks,
