Email sent by mantis not being received.

[nitya]

Hi,

I'd configured SMTP to work with Mantis a week back. Today, i'm trying with a different SMTP, but for some reason these mails aren't arriving in my mailbox.

It's strange because when I try and send a test mail from admin/check.php, I get

Testing Mail - mail() send successful.
Email Address: xxxx@xxxxx.com

Any idea if there is an explanation?

I tried this with a different smtp server/and user and it seems to work. Any idea what's going wrong?

Regards

I think the first SMTP server I tried isn't too hung up on authentication. I didn't specify any userid/pwd.

There's a thread on this on here http://www.mantisbt.org/forums/viewtopi ... ight=email

No solution though.

ARGH!!!!

Okay so my email was working all along. With both SMTP servers.

Only, admin/check.php is not very reliable. When I send a test email from this page, it says "mail sent successfully" but nothing reaches me.

However, the mail sent by the report/view/assign pages works perfectly.

So the code for emailing in check.php is different from that used everywhere else. Any explanations?

Cheers

It is probably due to the following bug which is fixed in 1.1.0a4:
