can't send ecards, no error-messages

[Harry]

hello

great tool, great job: thanks a lot!!

I have installed Coppermine.1.3.2

I can't send/receive ecards/emails. User-GUI seems ok. No error-messages after pressing the send button, everything seems ok.
Is there any forgotten configuration?


my url http://www.fctc.ch/tutorial/cpg_album

every user is enabled to send ecards


thanks a lot
bye
Harry

Create a test script with following code, execute it and see whether you receive the emails

Code Select Expand


<?php
  mail("yourEmailAddress", "Test", "This is a test to check mail server");
?>


Report back with your results.

Mail received!

any idea?

Did you check your spam folder, if it exists? The ecard may be seen as such. There is a mod to make the ecard have a lower spam score if that is your problem.

[Harry]

no, it couldn't be a spam-problem.

have you tried to send a ecard from album http://www.fctc.ch/tutorial/cpg_album ?

[Harry]

success!

I've read the manual chapter 2.6 and configured SMTP to send mails/cards.
seemingly a problem with the PHP build-in mail function.

tx&bye
