Hi,

Im using Windows and IIS for a web server and have configured the server to send emails.
I can successfully send emails using an email test page with the following:

Code: Select all

<?php
if(mail('[email protected]','php test subject','php test message')){
    echo('ok');
}
else{
    echo('not ok');
}
?>

However, emails do not send within forma (I have configured emails to be sent for subscribe/unsubscribe to courses under admin section).
What are the proper config settings to have emails sent within the application considering my setup?
Should I use $cfg['use_smtp'] = 'off'? Is smtp_host needed?

Thanks

Edit: Sending email from newsletter works fine it seems with use_smtp = off. However, no emails are being sent for the settings set in Event Manager.

Hi
if you are able to send mail with php standard function mail() the correct configuration for forma.lms is

Code: Select all

$cfg['use_smtp'] = 'off'

no other configurations are required

If forma.lms can send email for newsletter or helpdesk , the smtp setting is correct .
Subscribe course not sendinf email would not be an smtp configuration problem
