No email sent to end user nor administrator

I had trouble with some verification emails not getting through. There was only one person I could ask to test it again and she did get one after I changed mail settings from PHP mail to SMTP and set up an SPF record. I ended up disabling verification emails anyway in the end.

Some email hosters require SPF, but quite some verify that you accept emails with the email address with which you send email.

So, is there a higher chance to get CM mails delivered when sending them by a SMTP server instead of using the PHP Mailing Function? :blink:

same problem but not a hotmail account.

I used a mail@mydomain.com address, redirecting to a googlemail-account.

I don't receive anything... any hints?

Regards,
Taiko

I've the same problem as mentioned in this thread... I'm using CB 1.1. So no registration mail to user and admin..

Correct me if i'm wrong..It seems there's no movement in solving this problem..

I am using Joomla 1.5.7 with CB 1.1


I was having the exact same issues as mentioned in this forum and after much hair pulling I simply changed my Global Configuration - Mail Settings from PHP Mail Function to SMTP Server and left the SMTP Authentication set to NO.

It seems to work fine through Gmail and Hotmail accounts now. Both the user and Admin are receiving the confirmation mails.
