I have found similar posts on Drupal 4.7 mail problems, but I am afraid I am running around in circles!! Here is what I have:
CivicSpace 0.8.5
Apache2triad
Yahoo mail
Yahoo web hosting
I have successfully installed CivicSpace and everything is working just as I want... but the MAIL!! I am obviously doing something wrong so I hope someone can help. I will try and explain what I have done so far:
I tried registering as a test
Registration goes through (I can see the new user in my admin panel).
Test User receives message that "login info will be sent to the address"
Test user never receives login info
Test user requests new password
Recieves message "unable to send mail, contact admin"
I setup a yahoo pop account for outbound mail and changed the php.ini file with the pop settings. ( I think I may have screwed this up!!)
I do have a backup file of the original php.ini file if I need to replace the new one.
PLEASE....ANYONE......I NEED HELP! :)
Is there a step by step guide that will tell me how to get this running so I can have actual registered users?
BTW- I tried PHPMAILER... I must be stupid, because I uploaded it into my INCLUDES file?? I also tried uploading it to my MODULES file thinking it would show there?? NOPE!
I also tried LOGINTOBOGGAN...again... I am a stupidhead!! I HATE TAR files!! I downloaded it using winzip and tried extracting it, but it dosen't show the files like a regular zip file?? I know..I must be frustrating the hell out of whoever is reading this.... please be patient with me!!!!!
