I use a sql version of webwiz forum 7.9

My web host has CDOSYS component installed on the web server.

But it doesn't provide mail.domain.com for us , we have to put ip instead.

I use mydomain.net:8383 to access my mail.

Now I get to the point : my problem is that I cant use any of mail options : lost password , email notify and even my users have problem on registering when my forum tries to send them a welcome page.

This are my settings on mail configuration page:

Email Component to use: cdosys(win2k/2k3/xppro)

Outgoing SMTP Mail Server : nn.nnn.nn.nnn

Web address path to forum*: www.myweb.net/forum

Your Email Address : admin@myweb.net

Users get this error :

http 550 internal server error

my host says that there is an error on functions_send_mail file line 136 ,

which contains :

'Send the e-mail
If NOT strOutgoingMailServer = "" Then .Send

The problem is in your settings for email in the admin area.

Check that you have the correct details for the email component. Also check that your web hosts uses port 25 for the SMTP server. If they don't use port 25 then you will not be able to use the email features in the forum.
