I am having problems with the email on two domains both stores are not sending emails, even though i get the message sent verification, i am not getting email.
I have tested email on the server with this script and it works fine, so why is the store not sending?
Code: Select all
<?php
if (! empty($_POST['email']) )
{
$message=$_POST["message"];
$email=$_POST["email"];
$fname=$_POST["fname"];
$sname=$_POST["sname"];
$fromadd=$_POST["fromadd"];
$content = "You have a New Message From {$fname} {$sname}:
{$message}";
ini_set("sendmail_from" , $fromadd);
$mailSent = false;
$mailSent = mail( $email, "Website Test Contact Form", $content, "From:
$fromadd", "-f".$fromadd );
if ($mailSent)
{
echo 'Mail sent';
}
else
{
echo 'Problem';
}
}
else
{
?>
<html>
<head>
<title>SendMail Test - </title>
</head>
<body bgcolor="white">
<font face="Verdana" size="-9">
<p> The From address <b>MUST</b> be Fasthost Based </p> <FORM
method="post" action="<? echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']; ?>"> <b>From
Address: </b><br><INPUT name="fromadd" type="text"><br> <b>First Name:
</b><br><INPUT name="fname" type="text"><br>
<b>Surname: </b><br><INPUT name="sname" type="text"><br> <br> <b>Email
Address (To): </b><br><INPUT name="email" type="text"><br> <br> <br>
<b>Your Message:</b><br> <TEXTAREA name="message"> </textarea><br>
<input type=submit> </FORM>
</body>
</head>
</html>
<?
}
?>
I have tried changing settings from mail to SMTP but it makes no difference.
Any clues anyone please...

Have you asked your host about this error? They may have some security restrictions on sendmail. SMTP should work as long as you have the correct access details setup.

Hi
Thanks for the reply.
I have spoken to the hosting co and they told me to test their mail script which worked fine and will not say anything else as they insist it must be a coding error, but i have not touched anything related to the mail.

you shoukd not be using fputs if you are using the mail function!
you have got it set to SMTP when your host is telling you to use the built in php mail function. which is what i recommend people to use.

I have the same problem i think, the opencart dont send any emails. When i try to recover password, it says an email has been sent but i dont receive it.
What could be the problem/solution?
Thanks!
