Email Problem

Post by RoRo »

It seems that phpmyfaq doesn't managed to send emails correctly to the me (administrator)

What could be the reason ?

(also nothing in my spam)

Thanks for your help.

Hi,

what version do you use? Which operating system? Is your PHP properly configured?

Hi,
i'm having the same problem;

Im using Mercury/32 (from the XAMPP-Package) and
trying to send mail via the contact-form in phpmyfaq with English as selected language i recive the email as expected:
------- Entry from mercury log -------
Connection from 127.0.0.1, Fri Jan 21 16:25:49 2011
HELO ALGWS02204
MAIL FROM:<postmaster@localhost>
RCPT TO:<ravol@localhost.net>
DATA - 8 lines, 139 bytes.
QUIT
0 sec. elapsed, connection closed Fri Jan 21 16:25:49 2011
------- ------- ------- ------- -------

however, trying to send mail via the contact phpmyfaq with German as selected language i get this:
------- Entry from mercury log -------
Connection from 127.0.0.1, Fri Jan 21 16:25:12 2011
HELO ALGWS02204
MAIL FROM:<postmaster@localhost>
RCPT TO:<<ravol@localhost.net>>
RCPT from 127.0.0.1 - user <<ravol@localhost.net>> not known.
QUIT
0 sec. elapsed, connection closed Fri Jan 21 16:25:12 2011
------- ------- ------- ------- -------

So the additional <> are causing the problem with the language set to german (and probably any other language except english)
Any idea where to change this?

Thanks a lot,
Rainer

Sorry, hatte doch nix mit der Spracheinstellung zu tun, sondern eher damit ob ich phpMyFAQ unter Apache oder IIS laufen habe ( bzw. an der jeweiligen PHP-Version ?!)

Also;
Unter IIS 7 mit PHP 5.3.5 funktioniert's, unter Apache 2.0 mit PHP 5.2.6 nicht (zusätzliche <> im recipient).

Ich werde noch probieren, ob's mit der aktuellen Version des XAMPP-Packets (Apache 2.2 und PHP 5.3.1) läuft und gebe dann Bescheid.

Hi,

I checked the code and I'm a little bit frustrated because I didn't find the issue yet.

Thanks for the hint!

Test with the current XAMPP-Package (incl. Apache 2.2. and PHP 5.3.1) --> Mail delivered successfuly!
Probably it's just a weird PHP-Configuration-Issue in the system mentioned above, so i'll just forget about it.

Thanks anyway for your efforts - i think phpMyFAQ is a great KnowledgeBase- / Support-Platform indeed!

Bye
