[Mediawiki-l] Email setup

Hi,

Yes

$wgEnableEmail = true;
$wgEnableUserEmail = true;

Are both set to true.

To test it, I went into Preferences and clicked on validate email
button. It says that it is sending an email but I receive nothing. Best
way to test that?

What I find weird is that my backup app is sending me emails using that
same SMTP server.

And I don't know much about PHP either.

Simon

Simon,
	I'm not a PHP hacker so I don't know the ins & outs of " Vs '. I
just copied what was in includes/DefaultSettings.php under SMTP Mode
into the LocalSettings.php file, with appropriate formatting and values,
and it worked. Cut & Paste your relevant entries in an email to the list
so we can see what you've tried. I assume you have also set:

$wgEnableEmail = true;
$wgEnableUserEmail = true;

I think you need at least the first if not both.

	As I said, I'm not a PHP hacker, it's just that I've set all of
this up in the last few days so it's fresh in my memory so I could be
wrong about any of this stuff, but for me it's currently working.

	Regards,
		Andrew
