Hi all,
Yesterday I downloaded and installed snitz forums. After taking care of a few of my own misspellings when changing the config file I have found your forum to be just what we need on our homes association web site. I still haven't made it visible with navigagtion links etc. however.
Here's the only that don't seem to be working so I need some help.
My Admin profile won't allow me to change the email address "yourmail@server.com" to my actual "webadmin@asburyvillas.com". What do I need to do?
Also, when I registered myself, non Admin, I didn't get an email to confirm the registration. Also, how do I make sure that when someone registers they can't begin posting messages until I, the Admin, have approved them?
Any and all help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks ... other than the above, everything I've tried so far works just as you would expect. This is a great tool to power our forum with.
THANKS MUCH!

| You will need to set both Email Validation and Restrict Registration to On, in Admin Options->Email Server Configuration. Of course, email mode must be on. You will also need to specify the remaining info: email server address, etc. |

Thanks for the help. The only problem now is that when I try to send an email to a member it never arrives...
Any ideas?
Here's what I have in the email server address...
relay-hosting.secureserver.net
Should I have something else? Godaddy.com hosts our web site.
Thanks |

| You'll have to check with Godaddy.com's support. I'm willing to bet that it requires authentication - a quick search should turn up a topic or three covering similar issues. I seem to remember that a few months ago there was a batch of people asking about e-mail authentication and their Godaddy account. |

Hi Bruno,
Thanks for your response. I'm anxious to put in your code recommendation to fix this same problem I'm having. However, being an asp novice I need to know three things...
1) where do you put the coding you recommend (see below)
2) am I suppose to change the "email address removed by HuwR" to something else, if so what.
3) do I need to change .Password = "**********", if so to what?
Set objNewMail = Server.CreateObject("Persits.MailSender")
objNewMail.FromName = strFromName
objNewMail.From = email address removed by HuwR
objNewMail.AddReplyTo strSender
objNewMail.Host = strMailServer
objNewMail.Username = email address removed by HuwR
objNewMail.Password = "**********"
objNewMail.AddAddress strRecipients, strRecipientsName
objNewMail.isHTML = true
objNewMail.Subject = replace(strSubject, chr(13), "<br/>")
objNewMail.Body = strMessage
On _
Error _
Resume _
Next
objNewMail.Send
If Err <> 0 Then
Err_Msg = Err_Msg & "<li>" & fLang("L_I_Mail001") & " " & Err.Description & "</li>"
End if
objNewMail.From = objNewMail.Username
-------------------------------------

I can't figure out why this is happening...
When an email goes out of the forum to an email address that is on the host godaddy server, e.g. webadmin@asburyvillas.com, it gets sent/received ok.
When an email goes out of the forum to any email address that is not on the host godaddy server, e.g. r.sh@sbcglobal.net, the following bounceback Delivery Failure message is received by the forum administration email account, webadmin@asburyvillas.com
This is an automatically generated Delivery Status Notification.
THIS IS A WARNING MESSAGE ONLY.
YOU DO NOT NEED TO RESEND YOUR MESSAGE.
Delivery to the following recipients has been delayed.
r.sh@sbcglobal.net |

| That message isn't a Delivery Failure. It is only letting you know that delivery has been delayed. If the message fails to send at all, you'll get a message saying so. |

thanks for your response. Yes, I understand the first message is a warming and delay in delivery.
Eventually though after a few of the Delay messages I get one that is a failure and says...
This is an automatically generated Delivery Status Notification.
Unable to deliver message to the following recipients, due to being unable to connect successfully to the destination mail server.
r.sh@sbcglobal.net
Any ideas that you could provide which would help me resolve this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks again for any help you or anyone can provide.

Well, it sounds like everything is working fine on your end. If the error says something about the destination server not responding, I would be more inclined to say that it's a function of the communication between the servers. That means either an issue with the GoDaddy server, or the recipient's server.
Your best bet would be to contact GoDaddy and/or SBC Global's support and see if they can give you any insight in addition to the "Delivery Failed" error. |

Thanks for your advice Bill. I will check with SBC first as thus far Godaddy has said they don't provide asp coding support !! I'm not impressed with their level of support with this email problem.
I am thankful I found this snitz support forum as you all are so very helpful and patient with this non asp guy's delima :)

Well, don't be too quick to thank me  . I hope you do get the issue solved, though. Like I mentioned before, from your description it sounds to me like the problem is not with the code itself but the way it's being sent... which could be the servers or (I am not the biggest expert on asp email components and methods) the code.
When you do hear back, let us know the result. |

here's a little more information as I've been trying to research this problem. First, I did contact Godaddy two days ago. They had me send them the "header" information for the Failure bounceback but I've not heard anything back from them yet :(
in the forum admin options, email server address is: smtpout.secureserver.net
in the following "HEADER" I don't see smtpout.secureserver.net anywhere. Can someone explain what I need to do to get the auto emailing from snitz forum to work? I'm loosing my sanity <grin>.
Thanks
Ron H.

Thanks for the email. I hope you sent the return through my site on goddady. If there is not delay or problems in getting email for me, then review the email conditions on your site.
What I did was to establish an email account on godaddy and then bounce it to one of my own email accounts. So far this has not been a problem. I also set up my Outlook Express to read and delete the godaddy email. Goddady has help guides that pretty much walk you through everything.
Support via godaddy email support is less that 1 hour in time.
If you have any futher problems, you know how to get me... |

serve as the original base for my own Forum.
These are some of the actions I find unacceptable:

The snitz set for email for Godaddy:
CDOSYS (IIIS 5/5.1/6)
relay-hosting.secureserver.net
xxx@xxx.xxx <- this is your site's email account.
Back on godaddy, set email to your site's account to be relayed to an email account of your choice. |
