    Re: admin_email.php

    i would like to add to my thread that i installed xampp, and that everything, apart from the mailing function, works okay.
    But still it would be better if i could send a mail to users.

    greg,
    if you send a mail from Inbox the mail is sent and there's not a mistake, so people can communicate
    if you send a mail from Course email or as a superadministrator to all users or administrators there's the mistake
    so mailing functions partly
    question remains what could be the matter?

    Re: admin_email.php

    Mail features all use the same mail function, so they should all work, or none of them should work.

    I wonder if perhaps spam filters are catching mail from ATutor.

    Re: admin_email.php

    i now also changed the php.ini in apache/bin which i already had changed in the php dir.Now the problem is solved! i changed the smtp-server and email-from;

    Re: admin_email.php

    greg,
    i managed to solve this problem on my own computer
    now the system administrator told me he has exactly the same problem on his server
    facts are here:
    atutor version: 1.6
    OS: windows nt 5.2
    web server apache/2.8
    php: php/5.2.5
    mysql: 5.0.51a
    http://83.247.63.27/atutor

    i told him to change the php.ini files and the config, exactly how i had done and the strange thing is the same mistakes appear.
    So in inbox you can send mail but not from course email.
    On my own computer everything is working now.
    How can this happen?
    is a mailserver like hamster playground a solution here?
    the server he uses is only used for storing files etc not for anything else, so there are no mail accounts made.

    Re: admin_email.php

    If you have a large ATutor system with lots of students, maybe the system times out before all the mails are sent, or perhaps the STMP server places limits on the number CC and BCCs on an email.

    In any case, I can't reprodcue the problem myself. Mail seems to be working okay throughout our systems, though we use linux and Sendmail, and don't have an NT system from which to test secondary SMTP method.
