Are they receiving any error messages when they attempt to send e-mails to each other?

no they dont, just a message that the mail has been sent.
and by the way, they cant sent to admin either, looks like its just admin that can send emails |

Looks like you have the paid version of Jmail.
Edit inc_mail.asp and include a valid username and password on the mail server (usually the email address and password that your host would have given you)
e.g.
case "jmail4"
Set objNewMail = Server.CreateObject("Jmail.Message")
'objNewMail.MailServerUserName = "myUserName@mydomain.com"
'objNewMail.MailServerPassword = "MyPassword"
objNewMail.From = strSender
objNewMail.FromName = strFromName
objNewMail.AddRecipient strRecipients, strRecipientsName
objNewMail.Subject = strSubject
objNewMail.Body = strMessage
on error resume next '## Ignore Errors
objNewMail.Send(strMailServer)
If Err <> 0 Then
Err_Msg = Err_Msg & "<li>Your request was not sent due to the following error: " & Err.Description & "</li>"
End if
Don't forget the two apostrophe's to the left of those two lines. |

thank you podge very much, but your instructions are the same as i've allready used.
however i did test cdosys, and nothing relatet to emails seems to work with that.
is cdosys better secured ?(if yes, perhapse i should try and make that work instead)

below is the ex-code the host is given if i wants to use cdosys, but i do not see the logic of that.
if this is useable, how can i edit this into inc_mail ?
send.html
<html>
<head><title>Send me a message</title></head>
<body>
<form action="send.asp" method="post">
<br/>Send me a message:<br/>
<textarea name="body" cols="40" rows="15"></textarea>
<br/>
<input type="submit" value="Send">
</form>
</body>
</html>
send.asp
<% @ LANGUAGE = VBSCRIPT %>
<html>
<body>
<%
set mail = CreateObject("CDO.Message")
' Specify the sender address
' - the address must exist on the hosting account
mail.From = "sender@your-domain.com"
' Specify the address of the receiver
mail.To = "recipient@your-domain.com"
' Specify a subject
mail.Subject = "Message from my homepage"
' The email body
mail.TextBody = Request.Form("body")
mail.Send
%>
</body>
</html>

Test the CDOSYS code above and if it works then use CDOSYS on your forums.
Neither the cdosys or jmail components are better or more secure in this instance. Your host needs to look at the rules they have set for relaying. Ask them to look at the mail server logs to see why email is not being sent. In my view, an authenticated user with a known i.p. address (your website) should be allowed to send email to any other domain. Your host may have a different view though their code example above would seem to suggest that they have less strict email policies. |

Question for ythe knowledeable - is CDOSYS the same as CDONTS? Is it possible CDO refers to CDONTS instead of CDOSYS on the hosts' website?
just a thought |

that is very strange, my host says they do not support cdonts, but do supports cdo ?.
I think i should use the jmail instead since allmost everything is working with that, as I said earlyer the only thing not working is members cant send mails but the administratoruser can.
below is the ex code from my host (for jmail)
send.html
<html>
<head><title>Send me a message</title></head>
<body>
<form action="send.asp" method="post">
<br/>Send me a message:<br/>
<textarea name="body" cols="40" rows="15"></textarea>
<br/>
<input type="submit" value="Send">
</form>
</body>
</html>
send.asp
<% @ LANGUAGE = VBSCRIPT %>
<html>
<body>
<%
set msg = Server.CreateOBject("JMail.Message")
' Specify the sender address
' - the address must exist on the hosting account
msg.From = "sender@your-domain.com"
msg.FromName = "My homepage"
' Add email address and name of the receiver
msg.AddRecipient "recipient@your-domain.com", "your name"
' Specify a subject
msg.Subject = "Message from my homepage"
' The email body
msg.Body = Request.Form("body")
' Username and password
Msg.MailServerUserName = "sender@your-domain.com"
Msg.MailServerPassWord = "password"
' Send the mail (specify which mail server to use)
if (not msg.Send("mail.your-domain.com")) then
Response.write "<pre>" & msg.log & "</pre>"
else
Response.write "Mail successfully sent!"
end if
%>
</body>
</html>
since I am a very new doing asp, I dont know if I should replace this code into inc_mail ? or what to edit into inc.mail ?

Snitz already uses code very similar to that. It has to be a problem with the way your host has relaying setup on the mail server.
The following is based on guesswork.
Forum admin can send mails (using an address on your domain presumably)
Members who forget passwords receive email (from an address on your domain presumably)
Signup emails are sent (from an address on your domain presumably)
The problem occurs when the sending email address is not from your domain. Ask your host if authenticated users should be allowed to send emails to addresses outside of your domain. |

so, i asked my host if authenticated users should be allowed to send emails to addresses outside of my domain.
i've been in contact with 3 supporters and 2 of them likes to throw this stupid script to my face and the third one was positive, he would at least take a look at the inc_mail file.
but I havent heard back from him yet.
so if we asume that authenticated users should be allowed to send emails to addresses outside of my domain
what then ?
ps. my host havent answered the question about reaying setup.
