Registration emails not being sent - Admin emails are

[Brickstar]

Hello everyone,

My registration emails not being sent.  I do, however,  get a notice via the admin email that I have a new user but it never sends the confirmation email to the user. I didn't see anyone else with this same problem.      Can anyone help?

Thanks.

Have you tried registering as a user to see what happens? Can you send out ecards?

Thanks for writing!

Yes, I have tried registering as 3 different users.  It's wierd because my admin notification is very quick to go out but all 3 user verification emails are still out there somewhere.  Haven't tried Ecards.....I'll go do that. 

Any suggestions?.

OK, I tried sending an ecard to no avail.  I do have "enable ecard logging" checked in config section.

My gallery is here by the way if that helps:  http://www.bluegroundundergrass.com/gallery/

For the 3 users, do they go to the same domain as the admin? Maybe you need to authenticate smtp to go to outside domains.

Actually. I signed up using emails from 3 different domains.  Any other suggestions?  I appreciate your responses.

Try authenticating the SMTP. Look in include/mailer.inc.php and put in the login info for smtp the way you would with an email client.

Hey, that worked!!  Yay    Thanks Tranz.

However, all path links in user and admin emails are missing a slash (/) between URL and filename (between".com" and "register.php").
Like this:

Do you know why?

[Tranz]

You need to make sure the ecard target in Config points to your gallery, including the trailing slash at the end of the URL.

OK, all is working !!     Thank you for all of your help TranzNDance.  I really appreciate you taking your time to help me and hopefully this thread will help another newbie.

You are welcome. I'm glad it's working.

Is this a safe thing to do?

[Tranz]

It's not any more risky than having the database connection info in config.inc.php

If you go to either of those pages via a browser, they will show up blank.

In v. 1.4 (devel version), this will be an admin option, so it would be stored in the database instead of a file.

Excellent. Reassuring to know.

Thanks very  much,
