I believe this is a php problem and since the WP community is much better at providing answers that I understand, I hope you don't mind that I post my problem here:
I can't get smtp to work. I am confused as to what goes where....My host requires I use PHPMAiler and its on a windows box but will not answer any support questions on PHP or WP:
Here is my error when sending LOST PASSWORD:
"Possible reason: your host may have disabled the mail() function..."
1) Do I need the following in php.ini?
[mail function]
SMTP = smtp.mydomain.com
sendmail_from = bryant@mydomain.com
2) Is this the correct way to setup sendmail.php?
$YourEmailAddress = 'wordpress @ doi2.com';
$Yourname = 'Bryant';
$MailUsername ='wordpress @ doi2.com';
$MailPassword = 'mypassword';
$MailServer = 'smtp.doi2.com';
$mail->SMTPAuth = true;
$mail->SMTPDebug = 2;
3) If #2 is correct, then I can only assume the problem is with the path....
require("phpmailer/class.phpmailer.php");
Thanks in advance for your support...
