I have recently moved my websites to a new hosting provider (GoDaddy). The Snitz message board is up and running good on the new server. I now need to address setting up the email component.
I have some skills in HTML, etc but don't think I have enough knowledge to set up the email.
Would Snitz do this for a fee?
Thanks,
Karen

Karen, you need to login to your GoDaddy account and then go to Domain Management. Once there, look for "DNS Manager". Look for the SMTP setting, it'll be something like this: "smtp.secureserver.net".
Over on the right side of the Domain Management page, you'll see a link to your EMail accounts. There you should at least set up an "Administrator" account.
Once that's done, login to your forum admin console and put those values in your mail server settings.

Ok. Looked up the SMTP setting and it is "smtp.secureserver.net"
Now on the Snitz forum side, where do I put this?
Under Admin options-->Email Configuration???
And do I select ASPEmail?
So I don't have to install any components on the server?
Thanks,
KT

Any of the available EMail components should work. The EMail handler will detect which you choose and act accordingly. The rest is correct and yes, it should be that simple.

Still not understanding what I should do. The SMTP setting is "smtp.secureserver.net" but where do I put that information? The email address field should have my email address, like email.pentonusa.org? This is what GoDaddy gave me.
Do I select ASPEmail in the Admin options under email configuration?
So I don't have to install any components on the server?
I tried entering what I thought should be there. It appears to be sent out but no email is received to who I am sending it to...
Any help greatly appreciated! KT

Select E-mail Component: ASPEmail (or any from the list)
E-Mail Server Address: smtp.secureserver.net
Administrator Email Address: administrator@pentonusa.org
Note: This is assuming you've created an EMail account called "administrator" in your EMail function on GoDaddy.
You don't have to install anything to make it work, if the component didn't exist, it will not display in the choices.
