Hi

In the admin go to Global Settings - Manage Program Settings – Change SMTP Mail Server Name / IP OR Server Path To Sendmail * to /usr/sbin/sendmail -t

This problem has been addressed many times in this forum.  If you had used the search function, you would have found your answer at your convenience!

Also, if you read the threads that you started, you will find that it was answered:


You may not have had the exact fix but your host should have been able to tell you what to use in the sendmail path!  Also, this is from the installation manual:

SMTP Mail Server Name / IP OR Server Path To Sendmail

Configuration of your mail server selection may prove to be difficult. Below are a few pointers to help:

If you are on a Windows webserver you will not have access to the Unix sendmail program. You will need to specify a server name (mail.yourhost.com, stmp.yourdomain.com, etc.), an IP address (127.0.0.1, 165.236.15.3, etc.) or the default localhost (localhost) designation. Approximately 80% of the time localhost will work on a Windows server.

If you are on a Unix or Linux server you have the same option to use a server name, IP address or localhost designation as those on Windows servers. If you plan on sending HTML formatted emails using the Administrator Utility's Mail List and Contact functions, you will need to specify an SMTP server name, IP address or 'localhost' for you mail server. This option is not available when you use the Unix sendmail program directly.

You have the option to use the Unix sendmail program directly. Using sendmail directly on Unix or Linux server is a more efficient way of handling mail. Sendmail should be called as follows:

/usr/sbin/sendmail

The path above will work on 90% of the Unix and Linux servers on the Internet. Sometimes sendmail is not installed or aliased in the /usr/sbin directory. If you cannot send mail using the administrator utility, using that path, try the following in the order they are presented:

/usr/bin/sendmail
/usr/lib/sendmail
/usr/local/sbin/sendmail
/usr/local/bin/sendmail

Please note: Calling sendmail with the '-t' option (taint flag), as in '/usr/sbin/sendmail -t' is optional. The program will automatically add the '-t' if it is not present.

If after following these instructions you cannot send mail to yourself from the Administrator Utility and you are using a valid email address for your test messages, contact your host and they will be able to tell you which designation to use.

The information was there and available, you just needed to interpret it! ;-)
