geoffrey:
Someone correct me if this is not always true, but I think the from address will be the email address that is in the members profile of the one who is sending the message. I think that is pretty cool!


Used email address is in all cases an address of a user performing the action (ex. if Simon is adding a message you will get a notification from Simon).

One more question. No matter what email account on my domain I use for my configuration settings, email messages from aC always come from the same one. I'd like them to come from a specific address, something like "projects@mydomain.com."

Do you know of a way to do this, or do I need to just stick with this "default" behavior?

Thanks again for your help.

Have you looked for an error message in your /activecollab/cache/log.php?

Also log into godaddy go to 'my email' and enable smtp forwarding on the primary account (the one you're using in configuration-mailing).

You should be using the full email address for SMTP username (yourname@yourdomain.com).

Hope one of these works, I've been trouble free in all my activeCollab accounts on Godaddy.

Sorry to call you guys out on the forums, I couldn't think of another way to get in touch with you.

(If an Admin wants to delete this post, I usnderstand)

Anyway, I know you guys both had issues getting email to work on GoDaddy hsting accounts, and I seem to be running into the same issue, so I was hoping you could help.

I currently have my settings as follows:
Mail Transport: SMTP Server
SMTP Server: smtpout.secureserver.net
SMTP Port: 25
Use SMTP authentication: Yes
SMTP username : "my username"
SMTP password : "my password"
Use Secure SMTP connection : No

When I try to test I get the error "Notifier has failed to construct mailer object"

Can either of you tell me what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks.
