My situation is the same.  Users are not sent registration emails (several hours passed).  No errors are returned.  Emails using our internal SMTP server normally arrive immediately.

Setup: AspMail v3 installed and working (other applications use this) on IIS 6 (Windows 2003 Standard Edition), WWF 7.7.

Hope you can help or offer support.

I have tested this on a few sites now and haven't found a problem with the code itself.

The same functions are used to send the mass email as all the other emails, this function has not changed in the way emails are sent since around version 7.0 and I can not find any sort of problem in the code.

Is there any way I can test where the problem lays?  I'd rather I got an error as then I'd know where to look.

I've just forced the code to write the SMTP address and it's showing as "" (i.e. nothing).  Therefore, the send command is not being invoked.  Could this be it?  The SMTP address is present in the system.

Could this problem be because I upgraded and migrated from 6.34?

Okay, as a temporary fix, I have done the following to make it work:

Changed line 249 in "functions_send_mail.asp" from:

.Host = strOutgoingMailServer

To:

.Host = "172.16.8.103"

And line 270 from:

If NOT strOutgoingMailServer = "" Then .Send

To:

.Send

It seems to work now.

Then again, I seem to be getting all kinds of emails now - everytime someone posts a message.

 Please ignore my last message!!

What you have done is exactly the same as entering your mainl servers address into the admin area.

It sounds to me that for some reason the application variables are not updating in the main forum. Try upadting the main forum conifguration page that shopuld hopefully force the application variables to update with the correct mail server settings.
