I can't seem to get Mass Email to work. I run my own mail server so I can see the SMTP transaction. The connection from FF to my mail server is made and everything appears normal until the RCPT TO header which is blank (< >) instead of having the users' email addresses.

Other email functions (like registration and new message notifications) seem to work fine. I have the 'Allow Email' in Global Configuration set to 'No.' Should it be 'Yes?'

Any help would be appreciated.

Are you using FUDforum's SMTP gateway or native mail() function (default behaviour)?

The INI option you've indicated has no impact on this.

The recepients of the e-mail are indicated via the Bcc: header. Does main Rcpt To of a space cause your mail server a problem?

Apparently it does because I get a QUIT command after the blank RCPT TO.

Now it does recieve a <> RCPT TO correctly, it has to to be RFC compliant, but what it is getting from FF is < >. (notice the space between the angle brackets.

Try modifying the script to specify an empty string to 1st arg of the mail() function, see if that does the trick.
