I am writing a "force php to use external smtp server" routine that I will
be happy to share if anyone wants it.
WHY?? If the server is windoze, an external smtp server can be added to the php.ini.
But if the server is *nix, or if the server is a shared host, it cannot be changed for the owner of PhotoPost Classifieds.
The problem I am seeing is in: in pp-inc.php,
Code:
Content visible to verified customers only.
There is a line near the top of that function that does this:
Code:
Content visible to verified customers only.
What I am seeing is that the "From: " is causing a problem if the admin has not selected "html" because there is another line just below the html check
that does this:
<if not html> (psuedo code)
Code:
Content visible to verified customers only.
and results in the "sendfrom" email address now becoming:
"From:
myemail@dot.com" instead of : "myemail@dot.com"
My new email function works fine if I strip the "From: " but obviously dies if I leave it in.
Am I wrong in my thinking?
