phpMyFAQ 2.8 SMTP Configuration

Post by Jaspers05 »

Dear all,

I dont know if it is possible, but does phpMyFAQ 2.8 contain the function to send an e-mail when a comment is posted on a question. If something like this is possible then my following question is, when can I set the SMTP configuration for this?

Hi,

phpMyFAQ uses the builtin PHP mail() functionality.
