Problem with Contact Form Plug-in - javier.g.visiedo - 2012-02-25

Hi,
I have just started using the Contact Form Plug-in, and I am having problems with the sendmail function.

Once you fill in the form data and click "send mail" I get the error page but no explanation for the cause of the error.

I test the php mail function from my page and it is working and sending mails, I wonder if zen_photo send mail function requires any specific configuration for my provider sendmail.

zenphoto_sendmail v1.4.2 plugin is active.
I also tried to enable and configure the PHP mailer plugin but no luck so far.

Any idea what I am missing? By the way, it works in my development server (XAMPP).
Rgds

You need to look at the php error log of your server.

Zenphoto has two mail plugins. zenphoto-sendmail and phpmailer. You need only one at the time. Of course the contact form options need to be set correctly.

Not all Service Providers allow sendmail mailings. So that could be the issue. Normally this is to prevent Spammers from using the server to automatically send Spam.

Thanks guys! I assume is a problem with sendmail in my Service provider as you suggested sbillard.

PHP mailer plugin is active now, using SMTP and it works!

That is why the PHP mailer plugin is there!
