Did you checkout the email configuration page in the manual?

change to smtp

Post by fitzy79 »

I had the same problem and found it was an error with php.

I just changed the method of delivery to smtp. (config_defaults_inc.php)

I change the $g_phpMailer_method = 2; line

gave a valid smtp server address, and username/password.
(ie $g_smtp_host, $g_smtp_username, $g_smtp_password)

should work. I believe the smtp server must allow relaying though.
