no email notifications in spite of positiv email-test

Post by mogli »

Hi,

during the installation (ver 1.1.2 on WinXP) I was testing my email-settings on the adminsite with positiv result.
But if I create a new user or reset a users password, no email was transmitted.

Whatever value (0 or 2) is set in phpmailer_methode, only the testmail is OK

So, where is the problem in my email-settings

Did you change the values of: $g_administrator_email, $g_webmaster_email, $g_return_path_email, $g_smtp_host (or whatever you're using) in config_defaults_inc.php and and config_inc.php.sample

Also the value of: $From in calss.phpmailer.php

You should ONLY make changes to config_inc.php, never config_defaults_inc.php because that file will be over-written when you upgrade to a new version of Mantis. config_inc.php is not over-written when you upgrade. If you need to make changes, copy the needed section(s) from config_defaults_inc.php and paste them into config_inc.php and then make your changes.

Check my other posts for how to fix email notifications. This is probably the #1 most asked question.
