SMTP doesn't work

[Jisana]

Hi, I have my forum SMF with SMTP configured, but I can't sent any message.

Are you directing it to an outside SMTP server like Google?

If it goes through x10hosting's mail server, Hotmail and other recipients will probably bounce it back due to too many members abusing the system.

I just tested using the PEAR module to send mail from the free server Chopin via Google Apps. Worked fine. So the outgoing port should not be a problem.

I have configured my account with SMTP from Google Apps.
But I can't sent anything

I have tried to configure with the SMTP from x10, but I just only send to Gmail account and others, but not for Hotmail.

I will continue trying

$mail->SMTPSecure = "ssl";  
    $mail->Host       = "smtp.gmail.com"; 
    $mail->Port       = 465;

Some of the settings that worked for me using PHPMailer

Yeaaaaah! It's ok now I can send emails now

Thanks a lot
