I'm having some difficulty getting the e-mail to work properly.
 
I was wondering if it might be that my server requires authentification (when setting up Outlook Express I have to go back and check that box) Is this configuarable from the admin panel or might it be built in?
 
While I'm here, how do I make a carriage return in a post or reply be a line break and not a paragraph break.

SHIFT + Return for <br/>

regarding email you can add the coding for it, but its not in V7.9 i think it'll be V8

Thanks dj air. I'll remove the email stuff for now. Do you know where an example of adding the authetification might be found, unless 8 is right around the corner?
 
Regading the line break, I'd like to do like it is here where <br> is the default as opposed to </p>. I'm guessing it might apparent on the forums post page though.

I went with CDONTS but on my server I can use ASPMail or ASPEmail as well.

replace the following section in send_mail_function (in the functions folder i think)



                'Set and update fields properties
                With objCDOSYSCon
                    'Out going SMTP server
.Fields("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cd o/configuration/smtpserver") = strOutgoingMailServer
                    'SMTP port
.Fields("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cd o/configuration/smtpserverport")  = 25
                    'CDO Port
.Fields("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cd o/configuration/sendusing") = 2
                    'Timeout
.Fields("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cd o/configuration/smtpconnectiontimeout") = 60
                    .Fields.Update
                End With


with the following


        Dim strMailServerPass, strMailServerUser
strMailServerUser = ""
strMailServerPass = ""


                'Set and update fields properties
                With objCDOSYSCon
                    'Out going SMTP server
                    .Fields("http://schemas.microsoft. com/cdo/configuration/smtpserver") = strOutgoingMailServer
                    'SMTP port
                    .Fields("http://schemas.microsoft. com/cdo/configuration/smtpserverport")  = 25
                    'CDO Port
                    .Fields("http://schemas.microsoft. com/cdo/configuration/sendusing") = 2
                    'Timeout
                    .Fields("http://schemas.microsoft. com/cdo/configuration/smtpconnectiontimeout") = 60

              ' Specify the authentication mechanism to basic (clear-text) authentication cdoBasic = 1
.Fields("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cd o/configuration/smtpauthenticate") = 1
                       
'SMTP Server username
.Fields("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cd o/configuration/sendusername") = strMailServerUser
                       
'SMTP Server password
.Fields("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cd o/configuration/sendpassword") = strMailServerPass

                    .Fields.Update
                End With
