 HI

I have a portal email issue.  Until recently when someone posted to my forum (Active Forums), it sent out an email to me to confirm the post.  It also send an email out to anyone who subscribed to that forum etc.  My portal also let me know when anyone added a classified listing or directory listing (Ventrian Systems, Property Agent, News Articles).

But it has stopped and this is across all of my 5 parent portals.

It does still send out emails to people who register and also sends me an email with that registrant details.

Now, I have been into the host settings and checked the SMTP server details and it appeared that I had entered the mail server but not the username and password.  However, my mail server is on the same hosted server so susspect that is why it still worked without the username and password.

Right now when I press the test button I get the following error event though the portal still sends out registrant emails

There has been an error trying to send the test email. The error is:
Mailbox unavailable. The server response was: 

So this really is mysterious, does anyone have any ideas

Cheers in advance for any help

check the mail server logs, there might a limitation apply for sending mails or the recipient does not accept mails from this server (e.g. it is regarded as spam).

thanks for your answer, but the only emails that are not being sent out are notifications to my default account i.e admin@mydomain.com

The standard registration emails are going out.  Its just that all the emails from my custom modules are nowhere to be seen.

There doesnt appear to be anything in a email log files.  No bouces, no span

 

Cheers
