Hi,

Due to a large email being sent out daily, I need to have a separated mail server to hanlle this job.
Usually, mails being sent out by scripts might be considered as spams. Therefore, i turned to use SMTP.

I setup another linux server call smtp.mydomain.com, located "off' the board. (on different server than the my forum).
Then I change email options to use SMTP, we don't use SSL in here, no authentication is required. However, after a testing registration, emails are not being sent, no errors showed up..

Can you please give me any insight?
thanks so much!

Use the test email sending function located under "Maintenance".
