Hi,
I set the SMTP mail option  in the configurations menu under administration.
When i send an testmail with tools i get an message "Error: Failed to send test message".
There is no entry in /cache/log.php.
When i use the same settings for an email user acount, sending of email works.
(Receiving of emails not )This is described in an different topic.

Hi,
Your email address at your user profile is the same as the one you are using at email module?
If it is not the same, ensure that this email address exists.

hope this help

When you send mails using the testing tool from administration, the sender address used is the email address of the logged user, the one defined in 'Account' -> 'Update Profile'

Hi,

i use SMTP server as mail transport. Wheni check the tcp trafic i get the following SMTP Command :

MAIL FROM:  <xxxxx>
and xxxxx ist the SMTP username and not the logged users email adress.

The response from mail server is :
<xxxxx>: sender address must contain a domain             .

Can you please check this .
Sending emails in the email modul works !.

Thanks and regards

We put the SMTP username on the from field because some SMTP servers require that the From address' domain is the same as the SMTP server's. If we put the logged user's some SMTP server's won't allow sending the emails.

You could try changing your SMTP username for username@domain. Usually this works as a valid username. Try it and let me know if it works.

Thanks.

Hi,

i have checked this. There is no way to use the something like username@domain. I must use a customer id like wpxxx-y
 (We have a mailer at hosteurope.de)

There must be a good reason while all famous mail clients have separate fields
for Account ID and email adress.(like Opengoo has in the settings for email accounts)

Are these settings important for all mails send bei opengoo itself ?

Thanks and Regards

Yes, I think that separating the "from" address from the SMTP username would be the wisest.

Thanks.
