Hey guys,
I've got a few questions on how to set up email activation for phpBB3 because as of right now no emails are being sent.
General Settigns
SMTP Settings
1) Is my default email address supposed to be in the contact and return box?
2) Is SMTP enabled on x10hosting accounts?
3) I tried the following settings for SMTP but it didn't work. Any idea why?
SMTP Settings
4) Is there any other setting that might be wrong? (Yes I do have the forum set to have users authenticate their emails)
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
