My phpnuke site isnt sending email activiation to users when they register. Where do I input the proper SMTP information in order for them to be emailed activation? Thanks.

Why do you need to input Mail settings, dose'nt your host provide a mail server, 9 times out of 10 this is just a wrong Forum configuration setting.

You only need to enter mail settings if :

A, your host dose'nt allow mail (which is very rare)

B, you actually want to use a different Mail server like yahoo, aol, msn, a different domain mail server etc..

Well since the mail() function isnt working, I do want to use another mail provider.

If your email function isnt working adding Mail settings isnt going to work either. Again its probably just a configuration setting. Found in admin.php select Forums and Configuration.

If you want to contact me through msn be my guest.

I am to having the same trouble It will not send out activation emails. can you help I do have a web host that has a email and that can send it but, I just cant figure out why it wont send it.
