OOPS! NO MAIL! (RESOLVED!)
« on: October 27, 2008, 05:51:12 PM »
Heh, well I made a boo-boo.  You see quite some time ago I reinstalled my mail server, well then lets just say I forgot to setup mail forwarding.  Now I can't send e-mails out from this forum!  As soon as I can find my manual (It's in a box somewhere, I hate moving) I will have it fixed.  I'm sure it will be fixed before anyone even signs up here, but I hope I'm wrong! Come on people! I want developers! Unless you don't want to be part of something awesome, then that's cool.

OK, supposedly I've fixed it, I sent myself a test email... well to my yahoo account.  My server says the mail was sent, but I have yet to receive it on yahoo... I think I may have killed it when I emptied my spam box...

[5 min later]
Well apparently it still doesn't work.  Or yahoo is deleting emails from apache@greengiant.daijoubu.net... lets see if I can get rid of the greengiant part in front of daijoubu.net

[Another 5 min later]
OK, that didn't work... I have no idea how to change that... Well I suppose I'll just have to check back later to find out if yahoo is just taking their sweet damn time.

Correction! It was not my server! I have a little addon that will prevent your email from appearing, and it uses the forum to mail you.  so lets just say my email is poopypants@yahoo.com.  When I try to send myself a test email it not only goes to poopypants@yahoo.com but appears to be from poopypants@yahoo.com.  Yahoo sees this as BAD! As well they should!  Now if I can just get you ass holes to sign up I can properly test the mail function and then delete this entire thread!

Well I sent you an email, but it seems to be working ok. I think you just need to change the email of the forum.

It should be under Admin -> Server Settings then the "Webmaster Email Address". I would just change it to something like

Code: [Select]
noreply@tangorangers.com
This way people can't reply back, and you can't get spammed with it.
