Email Won't Send
Typically the most common problem is a 'typo' in your configuration.
However, double check the following:
Navigate to the bottom of
the log and look for 'errors'. (usually marked in red). The errors
should give you an indication of the problem.
-
Check that the SMTP Server
name is correct.
-
Port 25 should be the default port number.
(unless your ISP requires a different port number)
-
If your SMTP server requires
Authentication, make sure it's checked off and the User Name and
password are correct.
-
Check that the "To" email address in your
test email is a 'valid' email address.
-
Make sure you have a 'blank' line between
the subject and the email message body.
-
Suggestion: Setup the same SMTP
settings (SMTP server name and port, and Authentication.
(User name, and password) if required, in Outlook or Outlook Express to verify that
it works.
-
Verify that the email formatting hasn't
been corrupted. (see format below)
-
If everything else fails, uninstall
eeMailer and reinstall. This will usually fix any 'typo' problems
that you 'just don't see'. :)
Email Format:
To: "Recipients Name" <recipient's email
address>
From: "Senders Name" <sender's email address>
Date: %TimeStamp%
Subject: Put your subject here
Put your message here.
Format Notes:
-
Don't remove the " "
and < > characters in the formatting.
-
%TimeStamp% is a system variable and
will be automatically replaced in the 'sent' email with the current
system time and date.
-
You MUST leave a BLANK line between
the Subject and the email's Message body. Otherwise in some
situations the formatting of the 'sent' email will become 'screwed' up.
