I'm having problems with receiving the notification email for a new PM on certain email accounts such as Hotmail or Yahoo!. I actually made a post about this in the Mail Configuration forum here but I think that wasn't the place to post it because it is certainly related to the PM mod.
I made the fix to pop_mail.asp as suggested here by HuwR:
quote:
Ok, I am going to hazard a guess that some setting has changed on the mail server you use. You will most likely find that relaying has been disabled, therefore user to user email has stopped working because
the senders email address is being rejected by the server.
It is also slightly related to the mail component, as some will work whereas other won't.
Now, a suggested work around, I haven't tried this, so may not work.
in pop_mail.asp look for this code
strRecipients = Request.Form("Email")
strFrom = Request.Form("YEmail")
strFromName = Request.Form("YName")
change it to this
strRecipients = Request.Form("Email")
strFrom = strSender
strFromName = Request.Form("YEmail")
this should fool the mail server into thinking the forum has sent it.
Which worked a treat for receiving emails sent through the forums.
Now, is this same 'fix' possible for receiving PM Notifications? Am I right in thinking something would need to be altered in privatesend_info.asp?
TIA. |
