I made it!
Finally, my store not only sends Contact Form email, but order notifications too!!
To both customer and admin!!
I managed to integrate PHPmailer in order to replace built in mail function which never worked for me.
Please note I'm kind of newbie, so the code is probably messed up and I'm sure it could use some improvement - whoever's coding skills are better than mine, please feel free (or better: obligated
) to comment and improve!
Good to know:
- - my server is linux based
- - OC version is 1.4.8b (clean install)
- - I set PHPmailer to use SMTP protocol
- - I integrated PHPmailer beacuse I was one of the unlucky ones for whom built-in mail function never worked (no matter what!). I still recommend first to experiment with built-in mail function.
First, download PHPmailer (
http://sourceforge.net/projects/phpmail ... %20php5_6/)
1. Upload PHPmailer files
Only 3 files are essential:
Code: Select all
class.phpmailer.php
class.pop3.php
class.smtp.php
Upload these 3 files to /system/library
2. Include PHPmailer in startup.php
Open /system/startup.php
Find:
Code: Select all
require_once(DIR_SYSTEM . 'library/mail.php');
After, add:
Code: Select all
require_once(DIR_SYSTEM . 'library/class.phpmailer.php');
Open: /system/library/mail.php
Find:
Code: Select all

At last but not least,
do not forget to configure your mail section in admin!
Login to admin and go to System > Settings > Mail
Mail Protocol: SMTP
SMTP Host: localhost
SMTP Username:
info@mydomain.com
SMTP Password: *******
SMTP Port: 25
SMTP Timeout: 5
Alert Mail: Yes
Additional Alert E-Mails:
additional@gmail.com
Note: I set host to localhost as I use
info@mydomain.com. If you use Gmal/Yahoo/etc, set it to proper SMTP server.
Important: Im not an experienced in php coding. There might be some flaws in this code as I don't understand it fully (hey, at least I'm being honest!
).
Example of potential flaw: in 3rd step the replacement code includes this line:
Code: Select all
if (strpos($this->hostname,'gmail'))
I have no idea what is the purpose of gmail part! Please advise
I hope it works for you too!
