Email Notification Issue

[Steve]

Ben-

Same host as some of the other successful installs, which is why I was perplexed. I suspected that <?php mail() ?> also, but I know FT to work on this host already especially in the submission email function.

re SwiftMailer: in the SwiftMNailer Module setup I can successfully send a test to this very same email address I am using in the form and for the form test email, but from the Forms > Edit > Email > Test page, it simply does nothing when I hit the 'Send Test Email' other than the pinwheel icon going into motion for a quick moment.

Oddly, I have even used SwiftMail in my own code on this host with good success.

Normally I can figure these things out, but I seem to have run out of ideas of my own, and was hoping your deeper knowledge of FT would bring something to light that I had not thought of.

Thanks.

Hey Steve,

Hmm, interesting... First off, is this on a different server than your other (successful) installations? Different hosting provider, or the same one?

That error will appear when the mail() function simply didn't work. Unfortunately, that function doesn't give you any clues why it failed, so we're rather in the dark.

With Swift Mailer installed, does it simply freeze - nothing happens? Or does it claim the email was sent? If the latter, try sending it to different email addresses to confirm it's not just being swallowed by a spam filter. If nothing happens, that's probably more serious...

It's odd that it displays fine. That indicates your email template doesn't contain any syntax errors, so the problem is entirely with the emailing mechanism.

Damn, I'm stumped.
