Howto: Enable SMTP for vB 3.0.2/3

1 Attachment(s)

I am putting this in here once it has been confirmed working ill ask it to be moved.

I offer no support, enabling SMTP will be considered hacking, thus why it is here.

Thanks to Chris on the vB team for the help :0

I clicked "Send" in diagnostics after typing in my email address; the script have been executing for about a minute now and still no response. The IE logo is turning though; so it is definetly doing something...

Edit:
It gave me this:
SMTP: localhost
sendmail_from: None
sendmail_path: /usr/sbin/sendmail -t -i

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: errormessage() in /home2/gogmia/public_html/forums/includes/mail.php on line 216

Line 214 to 217

PHP Code:


		
			
214.                if (!$this->sendMessage("RCPT TO:<" . trim($address) . ">", 250))

215.                {

216.                    return errorMessage("Unexpected response from SMTP server");            

217.                }

I'm guessing I still need to contact my host; thanks anyways for the great effort put in! This post is safe to be deleted.

Did you make sure you created an smpt account? :)

Is it best to create a separate account for these purposes ?

Why not change this:

Code:

var $smtpUser = user@domain.com;

to this:

Code:

var $smtpUser = $vboptions[webmasteremail];

and obviously add the password on the next line....

Thanks! This is just what I needed. I applied this to my 3.0.3 system and it works.
