Help me, can't send e-mail too members

Everytime I try I get this error:

2: Server Error
(c:\program files\apache group\apache\htdocs\frenchfries2\yabbse\Sources\Subs.php ln 313)


I downloaded the bug fixes, and it still won't work.

It does this when I click report to moderator button too.

1. check your settings (path to sendmail)
2. have you choiced the correct methods (sendmail or smtp?)
3. works your smtp if you use this method?

3.     I use SMTP, and I have my own SMTP server, it works fine (I tested it)

2.     I can't use sendmail, it's for Unix.

1.     Why would I need the path too send mail if I'm using SMTP?

Make sure your php.ini is set up correctly in order to use SMTP.  You have to make sure that the mail() function is using SMTP settings as opposed to sendmail in your case.

php.ini.  Once you set up your PHP properly to use SMTP, then it will send just fine.

[mail function]
; For Win32 only.
SMTP = josh

; For Win32 only.
sendmail_from = [email protected]

Is that right? (I have my own smtp server, and my comp name is "josh" If I use "josh" as my smtp server in my e-mail, it works fine)

and this worked with other scripts? i can´t believe that!

better you use the ip or localhost (if it is localhost)

SMTP   = 127.0.0.1 ;for win32 only
sendmail_from = [email protected] ;for win32

or

SMTP   = localhost ;for win32 only
sendmail_from = [email protected] ;for win32

the ip variante is quite better!

The regards line in any email you send to your board members, is defined in english.lng and it is set to display as follows

regards,
The name_of_your_board Team

If you have the name set for your board then it will be displayed otherwise it will not.

cheers........
