user registration email notification

For some reason the only emails being sent out from my DNN site are when a user is added to a new security role. When someone registers for the first time the email is never sent out...

Where can I change this?

Re: user registration email notification

Quick bump here. I am having the same issue. I receive the SMTP test email, users can get the password reminder email, and role notification emails, but there is no initial registration email that goes to the user. As an administrator, I receive email notification of a new account, but the new user does not. This is with 4.0.3

Re: user registration email notification

Same problem here... the only e-mail notification that goes out is to the "superuser" (host) account. Portal admin's are not getting any notification. I am using version 4.3.2 but was also having the issue with 4.0.2.

Re: user registration email notification

As i had said (last line) in my post, this is 4.0.3

I have made the following discovery: Registration emails ARE sent to any person in my domain (@mydomain.com). Anyone outside that domain is ignored. This appears to be because of a setting in the Admin->Authentication Tab. The form there looks like this:

Windows Authentication? If select, Windows Authentication is enabled for this portal
Synchronize Role? If select, user's role will be synchronized with Windows Active Directory security group each time user logon
Provider Select Authentication provider for this portal
Authentication Type Select Authentication type for this portal (Delegation is recommenced)
Root Domain: Root Domain in format yourdomain.com or DC=yourdomain,DC=com. Leave this value blank if you want to obtain Active Directory objects from root forest
User Name: User Name, who has permission to access Active Directory
Password: Password of this User
Confirm Password: Confirm Password
Email Domain: Email Domain to be used for user email when your network doesn't have Windows Active Directory (Blank is recommenced)

I believe that i had set this in the past (misunderstanding its purpose). However, whenever I attempt to clear it now and press the update button, i get the following:

Server Error in '/' Application.

Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code.

Exception Details: System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

Source Error:


The source code that generated this unhandled exception can only be
shown when compiled in debug mode. To enable this, please follow one of
the below steps, then request the URL:

1. Add a "Debug=true" directive at the top of the file that generated the error. Example:

   <%@ Page Language="C#" Debug="true" %>

or:

2) Add the following section to the configuration file of your application:

<configuration>
    <system.web>
        <compilation debug="true"/>
    </system.web>
</configuration>


Note that this second technique will cause all files within a given
application to be compiled in debug mode. The first technique will
cause only that particular file to be compiled in debug mode.

Important:
Running applications in debug mode does incur a memory/performance
overhead. You should make sure that an application has debugging
disabled before deploying into production scenario.

Is there anywhere this setting can be cleared manually? I have found a location in the database that seems to have these values (ModuleSettings table) but there the Setting Named "EmailDomain" has no SettingValue... Where does this value come from? Is it possible that it is interfering with my registration emails?

Thanks,
