But I'm not 100% sure about that. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/mail-senging-problem-with-mail-function#post-15889 Wed, 30 Apr 2008 13:05:07 +0000 DJP 15889@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>@amit_online</p> <p>I will try this on my installation instead of the PEAR workaround &#38; let you know if it works.</p> <p>Thanks </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/mail-senging-problem-with-mail-function#post-15883 Wed, 30 Apr 2008 07:55:59 +0000 amit_online 15883@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>After experiencing the initial problem of a signup confirmation mail not going out, and going through the various posts on that topic, I finally found a fix without having to use a plugin or use pear functions.</p> <p>In the file /bb-includes/pluggable.php add the following lines at the top:<br /> <pre><code>ini_set(&quot;SMTP&quot;,&quot;mail.YourDomain.com&quot;); //IP or server name for smtp server ini_set(&quot;smtp_port&quot;,&quot;25&quot;); ini_set(&#39;sendmail_from&#39;, &#39;ValidEmailAccount@YourDomain.com&#39;);</code></pre> <p>This worked in my case. I hope this solves other people's problems too. </p>
