Hi...

I have the SQL forum installed on my site. but when i post a reply, i get an error (page contains error and can't be displayed). I mean in the page: post_message.asp?PN=1. Yet actually the message (the reply) was really posted. And as a result, the counter for posts is not right. What is the problem?

Thanks

If you turn off firendly HTTP error messages in IE you will get what the error is and a line number which will help track down your problem.

But as the message is being posted before the error occurs my guess will be that you haven't set up the email settings correctly in the admin area. Go to the admin area and turn off all the email notification functions until you get the correct settings from your web host.

Contact your web hosts as they may have setup the email server to require authorisation or to only relay messages onto local email addresses.

In the Admin Area, Email Notification Setup Section, I've changed the email setup from ASPEmail to ASPMail. The problem then has been solved.

Our SMTP server is configured to require an email client to provide a username and password when sending a message. This is done to protect the SMTP server from unauthorized use by external users, and to prevent spam.

Because spam is a serious problem that is delt with by anyone who has an email address these days, I think it would be a great idea if you would ad a check box to the admin form and a field for username and password:

[x] SMTP server requires authentication

Username:
[                         ]
Password:
[                         ]

For now I will have to modify the send mail asp to correct the problem.  After adding the following lines to "functions_send_mail.asp" that is located in the "functions" folder for the forum and admin the problem went away:

With objAspEmail 

    'Username and Password for SMTP authentication
    .Username = "your username here"
    .Password = "your password here"

Hope this helps anyone else who needs to use SMTP authentication.  Can we see this added to the next version? ... Cheers!
