All I Want To Know Is Why Its Not Working - SMTP/PHP Contact Form ANNOYANCE!
Dec 18, 2007
I have just purchased a dedicated server running Windows Server 2003 (IIS).
I have a website with a contact form - which I know works because it was working when I had it hosted somewhere else.
My question is how do I set-up my server so that the contact form will work. I know it's something to do with SMTP -- But i honestly have not idea what i am meant to do.
I wish there was a SLOW step-by-step guide on how to setup the SMTP on the server to send emails.!

I'm using a 1blu.de vServer. On my VPS is Plesk 11.5 with centOS 6 installed. I created my Webspace [URL] .... and removed the Mail Services and activated the MSMTP plugin because I'm using the webserver from the hoster 1blu.de.
I activated the Firewall with the "allow any connection" rule.
In Plesk Tools & Settings > External SMTP Server I filled in the server informations smtp.1blu.de password & username. I checked all three boxes -> SMTP needs auth, allow user scripts ...
I installed Wordpress 3.9.2 with a Theme that uses PHP Mail function. The contact form is not sending any messages out. So I tried other php mail scripts but it doesn't work.
[URL] ....
Code:
<html>
<head><title>PHP Mail() test</title></head>
<body>
This form will attempt to send a test email. Please enter where this test should be sent to
<br><p>
<form action = "sendmail.php" method = "post" name="sendmail">
Enter an email address: <input type = "text" name = "to"><br>
<input type="submit" value="Send" name="submit"><input type="reset" value="Reset" name="reset"><br><p>
[URL] ....
Where can I find the log file that could give me information?
I just want to use php mail for my wordpress contact form and for a project application.

I have a CDONTS script which has been sending mail from a client's website form to their address. However, the script has suddenly stopped working. It doesn't error, they just don't receive the mail. I've tried CCing myself in the script and the mail is not getting through. The script itself is tried and tested and syntaxially correct.
I think the problem is because they're using their own exchange server, not the web hosts' mail server. Therefore I would expect that mail sent from the web script wouldn't go through because there is no local mail server to process it.
The problem is that the script hasn't changed, the host say their system hasn't changed, and the client's IT team say their exchange settings haven't changed!
I could set up a CDOSYS script to use their Exchange server to deal with the email, but their IT support won't allow relaying, so I don't think this is possible.
Is connecting to their Exchange box the only option, or should the website host still be able to process the web-script-generated mail despite not being their mail provider? I'm getting a lot of grief here, but it can't be the script that has suddenly broken because nobody has touched it!

I'm not a pro when it comes to networking, so I was hoping someone could help me out here.
Sending email via CDONTS on my desktop machine used to work fine but has recently stopped. In my event log there is a warning from source SMTPSVC with the details.
Message delivery to the remote domain 'domain.co.uk' failed. The error message is 'An SMTP protocol error occurred.
'. The SMTP verb which caused the error is 'RCPT'. The response from the remote server is '504 <williams-pc>: Helo command rejected: need fully-qualified hostname
I've heard people mention DNS suffix and putting your domain in places. However, my computer is not on a complex network, it isn't part of a intranet or any other corporate IT setup, its just a single computer connecting to the internet on a modem.

I set up my own SMTP server on IIS.
Most of the time it sends and recieves the email OK.
From time to time, the mails bounce. For example if I send to someone at Hanmail (major korean provider) then it always bounces. Similarly, sometimes people say they sent an email to the server and it bounced back to them.
I guess something is not set up right, maybe MX record or some other mysterious thing. How can I troubleshoot/solve this?
I MUST fix this so I will be back to check on this thread often,

I have been having great trouble sending mails from my local Thunderbird/Windows client to my Debian/Exim-server via TLS/SMTP.
I am no expert on TLS and SMTP, but I managed to create a server certificate and set up a secure (TLS) connection more than a year ago, and it has been working fine until it suddenly stopped working a couple of weeks ago.
Sending to external addresses from web pages still works fine, the problem seems to be in the SMTP connection. If I try to "telnet xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx 25" I get no reply whatsoever (it seems to connect but it just gives me a blank screen with a blinking cursor) and I am wondering if there is a firewall issue or if I am simply not running the right daemon to listening for incoming SMTP connections...
POP continues to work fine with teapop/stunnel enabled.
I am running Exim 4.63-17 on Debian Etch. I configured Exim to be of the type "internet site; mail is sent and received directly using SMTP"
==============================
Firewall shouldn't be a problem (?):
debian:~# iptables -L
Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target prot opt source destination
Chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT)
target prot opt source destination
Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target prot opt source destination
==============================
I really don't know what to do. I have tried running:
tail -f /var/log/daemon.log
Which responds when I access my mail using POP but not when I try to send using SMTP.

I have web hosting and domain, lets call it www.example.co.uk, but the main body of the site is on another hosting server (no domain, just set as a dedicated IP address). I'm just wondering if it is possible using .htaccess (or otherwise) to mask the website so the address bar shows www.example.co.uk - But also shows the current directory/file on the dedicated IP server?
So for example, being able to goto http://www.example.co.uk/shop and it show the page 111.222.333.444/shop?
I know the most logical option would be to move over the domain to the new server, but at this current time that is not an option.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I'm not so great when it comes to .htaccess.

We have windows 2003 with Mail-Enable mail server. We have PHP 4 and PHP 5 on the server too.
From one of the PHP mail sending script we are not able to send the mails. currently we cannot see the logs for mail sending from PHP form in the mail-enable logs. Also when we trytelnet domain.com 25 it give the correct result.
there is no connectivity between the php and mail-enable on the server. But mails are working fine from the webmail, but they are not working from the php.
how to enable the logs for php mailing sending in mail logs so that we can see it. Also please tell us how we can configure PHP and mail-enable both together so that mails will work fine from PHP script.

Anyone experiment with the best way to stop some spammers from spamming someone's web based form?
I see there are various random graphic letter generators that you need to read and type before hitting the submit button.

I am currently accessing Serers through remote desktop (windows 2003). To be on the safe site, i like to allow only 1 IP to access through remote, even better would be through one specfic domain or subdomain.
I have already changed the port number, but still like to have this additional feature.

I just moved to a new, dedicated server this week. My vbulletin forum users typically upload mp3 files under 10MB. At the moment, I can't seem to get anything above 6MB to work.
In vBulletin land, they recommend changing these in php.ini:
upload_max_filesize - Largest size of a file to accept.
post_max_size - Must be larger than upload_max_filesize.
memory_limit - Should be larger than post_max_size.
max_execution_time
max_input_time
I've cranked all of those up and restarted Apache.
I'm still having the same problems. The little window with the form turns white after what appears maybe 5 minutes, but I haven't timed it.
They also mentioned changing the LimitRequestBody in Apache. I appear to be screwing that part up so I created a thread in the Apache forum specificallya about that.
[url]
So I wanted to ask if there were any other possibilities that you guys could think of that would inhibit the file size up uploads via a form.
I'm running httpd-2.2.8 and php-5.2.6. It needs to be said that this forum is config is mostly right out of the box. $_SESSION wouldn't work in php until I changed the directory for it yesterday. So there may be a very basic config setting that I missed.
---------
I decided to check my error logs.
PHP Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 33554432 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 9852343 bytes)
I'm confused. I have an allowed memory of 30MB (give or take). So why does a 10MB file "exhaust" it?

I have a wierd problem on my server. I'm updating an order with my php shopping cart script and notice some of the orders hang on updating. After research I discovered the orders that wont update are orders that have domain names in the textarea field. More specifically. www.yourdomain.com will just hang if I try to update them.
After further research I discovered the if I put an backslash it'll update no problem. IE: www.yourdomain.com
This only happens with domain names inside a textarea. I'm not sure if it's a php config setting, apache setting, my firewall, mod_evasive, mod_security. I've looked at all of them and can't seem to find what is blocking the script from updating just because of www.domainname.com in a textarea.

I signed up for a 1 month trial of Matt's hosted service for form mail as I was in a hurry to get a client's web site form going (the site was migrated from Windows Server, where it used an asp script).
The features look good, but I was hoping someone has experience using it and can share some insights.
