Post subject: | How to configure phpbb settings for function mail()? |
Hello! First of all, I am French so I apologize for my bad english Secondly, I signed up for a Value Account (not the free hosting) because I wanted to be able to install a phpbb forum on my website with the mail function fully working (I want to activate confirmation emails). I was hosted by Lycos UK (free hosting) but this is not reliable It seems that this function is actually activated for my account but when I tested it, I didn't receive anything I entered my Gmail adress as the admin email adress (in the administration panel) as I did for my Lycos account but it does not work. Could you help me to configure the mail function with my Gmail adress for my phpbb forum? Thanks a lot. |

After this set this mailbox as the administrator's email and the mail() function of php will work. |
