Email is not working!!!! HELP!!!

[uReside.com]

I have a valid email address in the config file that matches the webmasters email.

can anyone tell me why the email is not working on it!?

my members dont get any notifications, they can't use the "forget your password" option or anything! no welcome emails either!

Sounds like your e-mail server isn't setup correctly. Assuming your on shared web hosting, you'll need to speak to your host. It's possible they might not allow out-going emails from scripts as a spam-prevention thing.

Also, check AdminCP -> Options -> E-Mail Options and make sure everything (SMTP settings) are correct in there. You can find your SMTP settings by asking your webhost.

Many thanks,
Alan.

You'll need to contact Yahoo and ask them for details. It's entirely possible they have blocked sending of e-mails from web scripts.
