Host specific email problem

[ken]

Hi.

I have uploaded a test site online to my host Awardspace.com and email is not working

I am receiving this error

1 error
1. an error occurred while sending e-mail to the customer

I have spoken to Awardspace about this and their suggestion is

In order to get the contact form working you'll have to make the following changes:

1. In the contact-form.php change the following line:
if (!($from = Tools::getValue('from')) OR !Validate::isEmail($from))

with this one:

if (!($Reply-To = Tools::getValue('from')) OR !Validate::isEmail($from))

2. Add this line in the same script:
$from = "[email protected]";

3. We don't know where exactly is the mail() function, but you should add the Reply-To: $Reply-To and everything should work normally.

This does not work, but even if it did it would only get ‘contact us’ working.

All email must be
to: me
and
from: me

Please help to fix this. I am almost ready to go live.

Thanks

Ken

Hi,

did you solve this? My mails aren't sent, too

Hi Beate

No. I have not solved it yet.

I wanted to use my webspace email so that I could use me@mydomain as my email but it appears the code needs changing.

I have also tried to get emails sent to my PC using my ISP but I use AOL and I can’t set up email to go there either.

I did get a couple of emails through using smtp.aol.com on port 587 but after upgrading to V1 Stable I cannot get this to work again.

I really need help with this. Its getting very urgent.

Please post here if you find the solution, Beate.

Regards

Ken.
