Email not being sent

Greetings...I am attempting to use UE to send a simple form submission out. It is fairly simple yet not working. Could someone please take a look?

Also, I am a php nube (am a CFer)...so be gentle ;)

Thanks,

Clay

try leaving the from display name blank.

also try setting the from address to a valid address within your domain, make sure it is not the same address as the to address.

Who is your hosting company? The SMTP server looks like it is GoDaddy?

I tried both of those and they did not work. Also, the host is GoDaddy. Other thoughts?

In the WA_UniversalEmail/mail_PHP.php file, try changing:

$mailObj = mail($mailTo,$mailSubject,$mailContent,$mailHeader );


to:
$mailObj = mail($mailTo,$mailSubject,$mailContent,$mailHeader , "-f".$mailFrom);

GoDaddy can be notoriously difficult with sending mail using the php mail() function.

Is your hosting account with them a Linux account? I have heard horror stories about getting the mail() function to work on windows hosting plans with GoDaddy.

Did not work. I am not sure if the client is on Windows or Linux. AM not a big fan of GoDaddy myself.

Do you have any other suggestions?

Hi

are you using UE3 or UE4?

if 4 then find this line

$WA_MailObject = WAUE_Definition("".($WAGLOBAL_Email_Server) ."","25","","","","");

and try changing it to

$WA_MailObject = WAUE_Definition("".($WAGLOBAL_Email_Server) ."","25","","","1","");

not my fix but Rays
