    Posted: 03 December 2004 at 5:38pm
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.

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
