How does fudforum handle emails?
When I select teh email button in the forum
to send to the administrator, the script never
sends email successfully.
There is no error but there is also no mail sent.
What documentation is there for this?

I am using sendmail, which I understand works fine.
Where do I set up the email account to use for
mail sent via the forums?

thanks.

Peter

FUDforum uses php's native mail() function to send email.

If you can send email from php, then FUDforum will in 99.9% of the cases will be able to send email as well.

Do a quick test to see if you can send email from your php install.


<?php

mail("YOUR_EMAIL", "Subject", "Body");

?>
