Ive tried that, still wont send mail, for registration purposes. So im just set up with immediate activation, after a couple of question answers, and a captcha of sorts. That will work i suppose, its just a dang shame that we cant get this aggrivation sorted out.

I cant set up an email address like that in the CPanel Neil, it only allows whatever@ tropicalfishaquarium.x10.mx so how do i get tropic22@xo4.x10hosting.com ?? :confused:

Update: Just tried again and was able to create an email account in Cpanel ??? But still no mail function to registering members. Says it has sent the mail, but it is never received. Whatever ??? tired of this issue, ill just set the registration to immediate, after the captcha and questions...

At least for me, members cannot activate their accounts because they never receive the activation email. I also cannot create an email account in Cpanel. Can this be fixed ? Is it something im doing wrong ? It would be really nice to have that function working more than one time.

:lol: Yaaaaaa, youre right, switched my registration method to email activation, registered myself as a new member with a Gmail address, and the mail beat me there, about 5 seconds from the send. Thanks Neil, Good Work as usual. And Thanks bdistler for your input as well. Whats you email...

Any Ideas ? :)

Well, ive messed around with the mail thing, and so far ive been able to get mail from my forum via mail being sent to me from members directly, and from my site contact form. I just set up the email account in the CPanel using the email address assigned to me by the software installer when i...

:p I eat that stuff, with eggs for breakfast. yum yum

I have no doubt that some here understood all of that, but me being the nimrod that i am, and having just enough knowledge to be dangerous, i just started to rebuild from scratch. But !! hopefully my experience will help someone else. :) Hashed Copy, You Say ?? :lol:

I just found out how important having email might be to some members here. I want to stress that this is not a complaint, simply information. As ive said before, i use this service as a time killer mainly and do not put any great value on its being as functional as paid hosting would probably...

Did you set up that test email account in my CPanel ? >:)

Neil, i would like to say Thanks for all your efforts, but that being said. I dont use this service as a mission critical resource. Im retired, and have lots of time to kill, and im also interested in the aquarium hobby, which has really slowed down for every such forum out there, even the ones...

Ok, when i use my account email as the contact me mail, webmaster email and personal email on my site, this is what i get in return. Not Found The requested URL /4um.webmaster@gmail.com was not found on this server. Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an...

Is there any special way that mail should be configured in CPanel so it will work ?

Join the club :) I think they are working on that one, but its a pretty widespread epidemic, and evidently not an easy fix.

Well, Thanx Dead-i , :) I think you're a great guy, no matter what the other Staff Members say about you. LOL

In my CPanel stats its showing that i have an email account Email Accounts1 / 3 Can you tell me where that is located ?? Thanx

I see the Staff come and go a lot here, do you ever wish there would be no problems to deal with, and everything would just hummmmm along like a well oiled machine ?? :)

I have come to believe that all these issues are related to xo4 and the new cloud hosting, never had any of these problems on the other servers

I really dont intend to sound like im trying to be difficult, but i guess i just like for stuff to work right, free or not. And i know you guys do all this for free, and trust me if i had access to all the buttons i would figure out how to fix it myself, but i dont so i just have to either...
