I have configured a new Snitz forum on my website, which runs ASP.NET and ASP. It is set up to use CDOSYS as the email component.

The forum is set up with Email Validation and Restrict Registration, so that an administrator has to approve new users. The problem is that when a new user is approved, the user does not get an email confirming that they can use the forum.

I tested the email code (inc_mail.asp?) by changing a test user's email address, and the confirmation email is received at the new email address.

Does the forum have separate code to send the new user confirmation and email address change confirmation? I cannot understand why one works, and the other does not.

Thanks in advance, for any advice that anybody can provide.

Rob.<

Have you been activating the accounts or just approving them? The former will result in no email being sent...<

Ruirib points out the difference between 'approval' and 'activation'.

For additional information, you may want to look here:
http://forum.snitz.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=64411&SearchTerms=activation

This provides for email upon 'activation'. However, several members posted reasons why they think this action should not be used.

Take a look... decide for yourself.<
