Hi guys,
I've been battling this issue for a while, and haven't been able to find anything in the forums to help yet. I have issues with either using the PHP functions to send mail, or using SMTP. I'm trying to allow users to sign up at my site, and have also installed the notify module to advise if there are new articles or comments posted. The issues I'm suffering with email are different depending on what I have active, though, which is kind of frustrating...
If I do not have SMTP installed, a user only gets their welcome email if they sign up with an excelguru.ca email addy. (My domain). In addition, Running tests on Notify seem to send a mail message, but also only sends to a user registered with an excelguru.ca addy. (I also tested with a gmail addy, and that's a no-go.)
If I do install SMTP (with authentication), any user can sign up with any addy. They get their welcome email, and all is good. The issue here is that notify does not work, period. I keep getting errors reading "Error sending email: Language string failed to load: from_failedExcelguru.ca From: Excelguru.ca To:emailaddy@somedomain.com"
Can someone tell me how to either:
-Let the standard install mail outside my own domain OR
-Fix the SMTP Notify issue?
I game for either fix. I just want my users to be able to sign up and get notifications.
Thanks a ton,
