Emails sent.

[matthewhotdude]

When new members join my forums the Emails that used to get sent out used to have "chattaboxforums" as the sender. Now all of a sudded it's blank hope you understand what I mean.

You know like on msn when you get a new email it would pop up and tell you who from, well now it doesnt it's blank

[matthewhotdude]

No one?

And what did you change on the site right before this stopped working? Have you tried disabling your mods to see if it works then?

[matthewhotdude]

I didnt change anything thats the point. If I had changed something I would know what was wrong!

[tipoboy]

as lynne asked when she was trying to help, have you installed any modifications recently?

[Lynne]

And, did you try disabling your modifications?

Take a look at class_mail.php. In there, around line 190 or so, they talk about the from line and getting it from vboptions bbtitle. Do you have that set in vboptions ?

[matthewhotdude]

Yes tried disabling mods no luck...ill try the other thing now.

1 more thing to point out it's only the emails that are sent out on new registration that are like this. Other emails like for PM's or anything are fine

$from = $this->fetch_first_line($from);
if (empty($from))
{
global $vbphrase;
if (isset($vbphrase['x_mailer']))
{
$mailfromname = construct_phrase($this->fetch_first_line($vbphrase['x_mailer']), $vbulletin->options['bbtitle']);
}
else
{
$mailfromname = $vbulletin->options['bbtitle'];
}

if ($unicode_decode == true)
{
$mailfromname = utf8_encode($mailfromname);
}
$mailfromname = $this->encode_email_header(unhtmlspecialchars($mailfromna me, $unicode_decode), $encoding);

$headers .= "From: $mailfromname <" . $vbulletin->options['webmasteremail'] . '>' . $delimiter;
$headers .= 'Auto-Submitted: auto-generated' . $delimiter;
}
else

[Lynne]

bbtitle is set in vboptions > site name/etc > forum name

[matthewhotdude]

Yea thats all set up as it was

[Lynne]

I really don't know how the whole email works. I guess I'd just be following it all backwards to see where it leads. Maybe someone else with more knowledge about this area will come and help.
