[SOLVED] SMTP Email

[didster]

Hi, can anybody please help me. I am looking to change my code to accommodate this email reply. Is it reletively straight forward to do this? Thank you

 

The email that I recieved from the hosts was...

The smtp server to use is smtp.danahermail.com. We are not allowed to send out email on our own. It must go to smtp.danahermail.com then it will go out from there

is this a windows based server? either way, you host should have PHP configured to properly send mail...it's not something you should have to do.

 

if it's a windows system, after this line:

ini_set("sendmail_from", $email);

try adding this line:

ini_set("smtp", 'smtp.danahermail.com');

 

 

[didster]

Thank you for that although it still doesnt seem to be working. It is a windows server, I have added an infofile for you to have a look at, to see if there is anything on there. Thank you for helping

[rhodesa]

so...just noticed something...where is $email getting set?

 

if you echo it, does it have a value? before the ini_set function, do:

echo $email;

 

also, for testing purposes, try setting that to something static to see if it works:

ini_set("sendmail_from", '[email protected]');

 

[didster]

I put the echo where you said but it didnt show up on screen, I put a print there as well and that didnt. Is it because it goes to the 'thankyou' or 'error' pages before it has chance to show?

 

print ("Hello World! <br />");

echo ("Hello World! <br />");

 

Just for testing purposes, I just used the exact same script on my own server and it was fine! And the two hello worlds showed up!

[didster]

I just tried it on my server with the

 

echo $email;

 

command and it didnt come up with anything. As you can see I am a beginner. I would love to get into PHP more though

[rhodesa]

did you try setting the sendmail_from a static email address instead of $email (look a couple posts back)

[didster]

Yeah I tried it, again, it works fine on my server, not on the clients. I get the thankyou message up but I never recieve the email.

[rhodesa]

what if you just run a simpler version...if you put this in another script, does it work?

<?php
  mail('[email protected]','Test Message','This is the contents of the test message');
  print 'Done';
?>

obviously replace [email protected] with your email address

 

...if the above doesn't work, then you need to tell the hosting company to fix their server.

Hi Rhodesa,

 

You were right, it was my web hosts, thankyou for helping me with this.
