E-mail problems in PHP-Nuke

koun · Posted: Tue Aug 19, 2003 11:39 am Post subject: E-mail problems in PHP-Nuke

The registration process was working fine but only the e-mails that i had in the same server with my site could receive the notifivation e-mail.
All the other couldnt...
I dowloaded the Your_Account Tweak and users can automaticly log in without the e-mail.
The problem now is the forgot your password... procedure.
Here i have the same problem ? Only mails that i have in the same server can receive the confirmation code !
Help is needed.
The website is
www.patrinorama.com
its in greek....

BTW, try a white background, I think it would fit better to your theme.

I will contact my administrator and will ask....The think is that i have a site( www.tux.gr / phpnuke 6.0) that is working fine....
About the color because of all the images that are fading in that blue is really dificult to change it now...

Hi koun,

got the e-mail issue resolved?

Yout tux.gr site does not show up on my old Netscape 4.80 - and my StarOffice 5.2 (with that old Mozilla version) somehow lacks greek letters, *although* I am sure I took the pain to declare them to SO some tome in the past.

You'll have to wait till I upgrade to Mozilla 1.5 (not out yet, but I can wait).

Chris you were right....
My provider, psnoc.net, has configured the mail server, Exim, to not send mails to other domains than local ones !!!!!
Can you believe this !!!!!

The must have done that recently because now the registration is not working for my tux.gr site neither....

I am thinking to move my sites to
http://www.nukezone.com/
any other suggestion?

HI
I don't know much about customize an email but this is the error message i am geting in my site:

A recent post where we discuss this is SMTP_port confusion. But you may also look in the PHP-Nuke HOWTO, especially the subsection Users don't receive any confirmation mails. You should also check that you have entered the right mail server in the "Preferences" llink of the administration panel,

Feel free to ask again if all this does not help.

Note: You can download the PHP-Nuke HOWTO in the format of your choice from the Formats section. Notice that there is a module version of it too, i.e. you can install the PHP-Nuke HOWTO as a PHP-Nuke module on your site.
