Hi
thanks for your advice Callum.
After checking out my server hosting provider, i find that i need to use a different port as the default port 25 is blocked for SMTP.
I will try this today.
cheers
Hi Callum, Pinkteeshirt,
I am having similar problems, I could not use the PHP mail() function so am trying to use wp mail smtp.
I can run a test to an email using the domain of the website, for example name@mydomain.com
if i try to run a test to another domain example
name@somonelesesdomain.com it fails
so when a new user registers no email is sent, i have tried this using test email accounts.
I think that my path to the the mail function may be wrong as you describe in this thread. not sure???
the path looks like this
/root/mydomain.com/wordpress files and folders
output from running a test, i have changed the domain names and user names as well as the password
Test Message Sent
The result was:
bool(true)
The full debugging output is shown below:
