Do you buy chance know which mail server you are using and if it's configured properly to receive relay requests?

What type of server is vBulletin running on?

I've built up 3 new Windows 2003 servers and 2 Linux servers for clients (not my licenses for vB but client licenses) and it's worked like a charm.

Can you relay to this server using Outlook for example?

I'll try to help best I can... This is a rather mysterious issue though...

Nevermind!

I fixed it!

I looked at the forum of a friend who has the fix working. I looked at his files, tried something and it worked.

Here's what i did:

Code:

In functions.php



Find:



if (true) // will eventually use $vboptions to determine this



Change To:



if (false) // will eventually use $vboptions to determine this

I know the instructions of the smtp fix say it should be the other way around, but this worked for me (and my friends forum which has extremely heavy traffic).

Could just upgrade to 3.5 ;)

Not going to happen.

My forum is hacked to death (90+ hacks), and unless all those hacks are ported over to 3.5, i wont upgrade.

Why?

The forum isint that slow, its not slower than phpbb. Also 70% of the hacks i installed are administrative/optimization.

will this work for 3.7?

The terms you say to look for are not part of the functions.php in that version.

mail.php is class_mail.php in my new version.

is it safe to assume that those are the same pages just different names? the code was in the mail page and I could modify as described.

But for the function.php page there was nothing like what everyone says to search for?

"if (false) // will eventually use $vboptions to determine this" This search phrase is not in functions.php

Anyone know what the phrase was changed to?

Why do you need this hack? vBulletin v.3.7.x support SMTP natively.

I was looking for something that worked.

because it's not working right now.

I get this error message:
"Warning: 501 Unexpected response from SMTP server during FROM address transmission in [path]/includes/class_mail.php on line 586"

--------------- Added [DATE]1213297902[/DATE] at [TIME]1213297902[/TIME] ---------------

I get that from the Diagnostics under Maintance to test SMTP.

I know the settings are correct because my Outlook can connect with the same settings and send mail.

GrowReport, why not posting your question to the official VB support?
