Mail setup help

I have a gmail domains email adress I want to associate with my site, thing is I don't really know how to work the mail setup preferences, everything I've tried does'nt work, as it stands right now I have email activation turned off because my site can't/won't email new users, i can't get it to email at all, so how do i set it up?

Errors
The following From address failed: admin@thed-project.com
Could not send mail to chikenkicker.

I'm getting that when I try to use the mail users page.

so it has to be something to do with whatever I'm supposed to do with mail setup.

Re: Mail setup help

chikenkicker,

Interesting you should ask at this time...
I just added this information to the xoopswiki, and I hope it can be of some value to you.

Mail_Setup

Table 2-15

also as we go along, if you have a unique solution to your problem would you mind noting it on the wiki, at the discussion tab?

thank you,

Re: Mail setup help

Thats not really helping i have the ports and address I need it just won't send but theres 1 thing I think XOOPS is missing that I need for the gmail email its this

Use STARTTLS: Yes (some clients call this SSL)

There is no ssl or tls option and I think I need that.

I tried the smtp modifications but got still the same error message. On gmail help I found taht i should have this activated: Use STARTTLS: Yes (some clients call this SSL) I couldn´t find any option about starttls nor ssl, could this be somehow related?? Tnx Posted on: 10/10 10:20

about sendmail I ve asked for the path and they sended me this
/usr/sbin/sendmail -f mail@estudedu.byethost13.com
estudedu.byethost13.com---> it´s my page.
I used this (the full thing) and im still getting the same error. Posted on: 10/10 10:35

Ok, just wanted to tell how things went.
My page is fully working now. on www.estudedu.net.tc
The thing is that byethehost only allows paid users to use smpt, so its imposible to use.
the phpmail() function works, but not for hotmail. your mails wont even get to the spam can.
Sendmail also works, but mails arrival can take a while, like a few days to a week.
so... that´s all.
