PEAR third party server authenticating with PowerMessenger

hello,

I have seen this old forum question:

http://www.webassist.com/forums/posts.php?id=38169

and I already have the "PEAR_Mail_using_SMTP_php.php
file in question.

But since I have installed powermessenger, there are in fact two separate webassist directories, each with an email subdirectory

Please confirm that the one I want to mess around with is ONLY the one that is a subdirectory under the powermessenger webmail

And I of course intend to make backup copies, but please also confirm that the instructions given in that old forum thread are accurate because, for example, there are not 6 files in the direcrory but rather 8, and I want to be certain I do the right thing to the right files, so I can send out emails.

Thank you very much, and sorry for the many troubles I seem to be creating at this time.

Thank you for your kindness, time, and produucts

Yes, those old instructions are still valid.

You would not adjust the files in your root directory. They would be adjusted in the root of the power messenger portion:
/powermessenger/webassist/email

Hello,

I went in to do the editing, and the first file I came to on Line 15 was:

$WA_MailObject = WAUE_Definition("".($WAGLOBAL_Email_Server) ."","25","",""."PHP /".phpversion() ."",$WAGLOBAL_Email_Use_Additional_Params,"utf-8");

which is not like the one in the forum post I am using as a guide, and that says that the original I am trying to correct is, rather:

$WA_MailObject = WAUE_Definition("".($WAGLOBAL_Email_Server) ."","25","","",$WAGLOBAL_Email_Use_Additional_Params,"utf-8");

Given that I need to insert "SSL" somewhere or other in order to keep my specific mail service satisfied, is there a listing of and for all those options so I can be certain the correct paramemeter is being inserted into the correct location? My actual file has that PHP version check that does not feature in your original, for example, and I am going a bit cross-eyes trying to count the number of commas and separators. Plus not knowing what they individually mean means I am uncertain what should be inserted where. Thank you.

The function is:

WAUE_Definition($pearPath,$serverName,$serverPort,$serverUsername,$serverPassword,$serverAuthenticate,$organization,$xMailer,$charSet)

sorry to be a pain but I am thoroughly exhausted and can't think straight.

Would you please confirm that the following code snippet is correct, thank you.

$WA_MailObject = WAUE_Definition("mail_php.php", "smtp.xxxxxxx.com","465","raytheman@webassist.com","xxxxxxxx","SSL","","utf-8");

I continue to be puzzled by the Global declaration you have at the front in the original. Since there are six files to correct, I don't want to make any errors. It will also help any other future amateur such as myself in the future, hopefully, to see the correct rendition from you.

Thank you

Just to confirm, I have renamed the PEAR file you had earlier as the above, so it is all ready to go

That looks ok... it might just be:
$WA_MailObject = WAUE_Definition("", "smtp.xxxxxxx.com","465","raytheman@webassist.com","xxxxxxxx","SSL","","utf-8");

Often the pear path can be left blank and the default will be used, which is usually correct.

Sigh.

Is there any simple way to set up debugging?

I have tried both variants (naming and not naming the mail_php.php file) and neither is working.


Thank you,

I'm updating your powermessenger from PEAR to the new phpMailer library that has more debugging and we already tested and have working on your site.

I think I made the changes, but when I went to test it appears my FTP access has been blocked.

Can you give me access to the control panel so I can upload and test my updates that way?

I updated the files:
forward.php
users_emailpw.php
users_profile.php
admin_pm/users_registration.php
admin_pm/common/mailings.php
admin_pm/common/send_preview.php
webassist/plugins/registration/registration.php
webassist/plugins/registrations/themed/registration.php
webassist/plugins/registration/full/registration.php

Please download them so you don't accidentally overwrite them later.

I will d/l and archive immediately

I do not know why your FTP access is suddenly not working.

I just tested it both by direct FTP and with Dreamweaver and both work.

Access details to my Plesk control panel are underneath

A word of slight apprehension?

You listed
admin_pm/common/send_review.php

But it is on the actual site as:

admin_pm/common/sendPreview.php

So if something was not working, that is why.

If you confirm, I will correct it myself, unless you have already done it.

Thank you,
KB





I have d/led the files.
