Are you using the latest webassist email scripts? It might have something to do with the date settings on the server. I'd have to debug the page.

Did this help? Tips are appreciated...

I had the server revert to 7.4 php version and the email scripts now work.
Should I upgrade to the latest Webassist email scripts?

I doubt that is the issue... more likely a php.ini issue in the php8 version, but you could try. I'd have to debug, but I think probably the default timezone isn't set properly in the php8 php.ini file on that server.
