Thx. So I put on CMS settings PHP (mail) function on as default MAIL sender. But when I use feedback or simply leave comment. CMS doesnt send me any mail about new Comment (it should notice me by CMS settings). Should I make a mail account for that on this Hosting. Now I have 0/5 accounts. Hope Ur understand what I mean.
Also over there some alternative option send MAILs thru SMTP. What I should put on this fields if Im gonna Use SMTP?


SMTP host:
Default — localhost

SMTP port:
Port 25 is the most common

SMTP user name:
Not required if 'localhost' is used.

SMTP password:
Not required if 'localhost' is used.

Yes.

There seems to be some problems with the PHP mail() function if the "From" field is not set to one of the email accounts attached to your account. People have used gmail or hotmail, and that worked for awhile, but then it stopped with no error messages. Changing to a local email account seemed to solve the problem.

The server that you are on, Chopin, seems to be having problems with sending mail.

Our head administrator has been alerted of this issue and is currently working to find a solution.

Hi noivel, can you outline how you get the PHP Mail function to work with this hosting? I cant edit the PHP.ini file, so I do not know what to do!

Thanks

No modifications of setting files are necessary. The mail() function is enabled by default.

Yeah as said adamparkzer U dont have to change Ur php.ini file, all those settings came from my CMS adminpanel. PHP mail function is enabled by default. I just wanna mention that it doesnt work RIGHT now (it was working for me just 2 weeks ago but not right now). I belive Chopins Head Admin will fix this soon as possible.
