Activated account email notification NOT working
« on: May 04, 2007, 01:27:27 pm »

When user register and I, as admin, active their account, they don't receive any email notification.
I tried the fix suggested here: http://forum.coppermine-gallery.net/index.php?topic=39094.0 with no luck.

What I can do??


Thanks

Does sending emails from your gallery work in the first place? Are you capable to send ecards for example? Posting a link to your gallery might help as well.

I tried to send an e-card with a test-user but it also doesn't work.

OK, so sending emails doesn't work at all. Then let's look into this in detail:
  • Are you using sendmail or SMTP?
  • If you're using SMTP: what SMTP settings are you using? Are you sure that the account data you specified is allowed to send emails?
  • Are you web-hosted or self-hosted?
  • Are you hosted on a Windows-driven server or a Linux/Unix-driven server

Sorry for the late reply.

So, I don't use STMP - I left that part in the cofing blank
I'm web-hosted on a linux server

Try to come up with a basic script that uses the PHP command mail() and verify if it sends emails as expected. If it doesn't, you'll have to contact your webhost for support.
