Hi,

I am having an issue with people who have AOL email accounts (someone@aol.com). They do not receive the Registration Confirmation emails sent automatically by the site.
I contacted AOL and they assured me that I am not on any Blacklists. They say (and my hosting company says the same) that the issue is with the Headers of the emails. The received from info is: Received: from nobody by gs15.inmotionhosting.com with local (Exim 4.68)
(envelope-from <nobody@gs15.inmotionhosting.com>), which is the hosting company, as opposed to my site. Also the return path is: Return-Path: nobody@gs15.inmotionhosting.com.

The thing is that I am on a shared server and cannot control this, or can I? Can anyone help me? Maybe there is a way to modify the mail.lib file and correct the issue.

Near line 114

in the file smartway/lib/mail.lib

you find where the headers are set:

Code: Select all

$headers = "From: $sFrom\r\n".
                 "Reply-To: $sFrom\r\n".
                 "X-Mailer: $site_title\r\n";
   if ($send_html_emails)
   {
      $headers .= "MIME-Version: 1.0\r\n";
      $headers .= "Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1\r\n";
   }

you could try hardcoding your from by taking out $sFrom and putting in your email... also can hardcode your site title by taking out $site_title and putting in your site title.

these variables should be set by the admin contact and site title you have setup in your smaryway admin area.

have you checked your site title and email in the admin area?

Paul

Thanks Paul,

Actually it was a problem with my host. They had to switch me to another server and now all is OK.
