Hi,
I'm thinking about using Cotonti for a new website, but i'd like to make sure Cotonti supports SMTP by itself or maybe via a plugin. Can anyone confirm? Thanks. |

hmm its hard to give you a precise answer...
support smtp... hmm... cotonti can send emails using the php mail() function as any plugin or php script could... but there arn't any webmail-like plugins edit: yet... URL shortener: <a href="http://bbm.li/!7AD5C7">http://bbm.li/!7AD5C7</a>

Urlkiller is right...
Cotonti is not a emailserver so 'it' can not receive email.. But you can send email.. I think you do NOT want to receive email in cotonti ??? (think about spam for a moment, you have to deal with all kinds off shit like that) Question is: What functionality do you want ??? (PM is pretty OK...) greetings, ez ==- I say: Keep it EZ -==

When I previously used Seditio and members received e-mail from the website the sender was: 'linux04.mywebsite.gate@mywebhostingprovider.com' instead of for example just .
So i'd like to use my own smtp address instead of the one of my host. I can remember there was a fix for Seditio but I can't remember where it was.. |

if you take a look at the code.
this is the regular function to send mails in cotonti. $headers = (empty($headers)) ? "From: \"".$cfg['maintitle']."\" <".$cfg['adminemail'].">\n"."Reply-To: <".$cfg['adminemail'].">\n" : $headers; the $cfg['adminemail'] is set somewhere in the system. this is the sender, the server-adress of yours. you could try to fiddle with that function to get the result you want. but remember on a update you need to change the line again... BUT i have to say that i encounter that problem on some servers too and i didnt find a way yet to fix that. i believe on some server the mail command takes the email adress of the server admin or from the useraccount, not sure here... functions.php line 3009:
/**
* Sends mail with standard PHP mail()
*
* @global $cfg
* @param string $fmail Recipient
* @param string $subject Subject
* @param string $body Message body
* @param string $headers Message headers
* @param string $additional_parameters Additional parameters passed to sendmail
* @return bool
*/
function sed_mail($fmail, $subject, $body, $headers='', $additional_parameters = null)
{
global $cfg;
if(empty($fmail))
{
return(FALSE);
}
else
{
$headers = (empty($headers)) ? "From: \"".$cfg['maintitle']."\" <".$cfg['adminemail'].">\n"."Reply-To: <".$cfg['adminemail'].">\n" : $headers;
$body .= "\n\n".$cfg['maintitle']." - ".$cfg['mainurl']."\n".$cfg['subtitle'];
if($cfg['charset'] != 'us-ascii')
{
$headers .= "Content-Type: text/plain; charset=".$cfg['charset']."\n";
$headers .= "Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit\n";
$subject = mb_encode_mimeheader($subject, $cfg['charset'], 'B', "\n");
}
if(ini_get('safe_mode'))
{
mail($fmail, $subject, $body, $headers);
}
else
{
mail($fmail, $subject, $body, $headers, $additional_parameters);
}
sed_stat_inc('totalmailsent');
return(TRUE);
}
}

Make a plugin that uses e.g. a php-mailer library to send emails via SMTP.
I created a couple of plugins with this functionality for myself, I can lend you a helping hand with this. It depends on what you want. For me, I had to do the SMTP emailer (html format + attachments) with email history and the "Product reclamation system" that sends emails every time the reclamation process is updated. I used SMTP because it has the BBC functionality (hidden copies) and I could manage the bounces better. If you need just a simple emailer, there was once a plugin made by Tefra that just mass-emails messages... it might have a bit of incompatibility with Cotonti, though. |

I also had this problem when I used Seditio before I switched to Cotonti, but back then I found a topic where somebody explained a change in one of Seditio's core files and it fixed the problem with my sender being instead of the admin e-mail address.
Unfortunately that was quite some time ago and I haven't been able to find it.. Edit: Think i've found that bit. function sed_mail($fmail, $subject, $body, $headers='')
{
global $cfg;
if(empty($fmail)) return(FALSE);
require("plugins/postman/inc/postoffice.class.php");
$PostMan = new PostOffice();
$PostMan->IsHTML(false);
$PostMan->FromName = $cfg['maintitle'];
$PostMan->Subject = $psoptions['subject'];
$PostMan->AddAddress($fmail);
$PostMan->Subject = $subject;
$PostMan->Body = $body;
$res['email'] = $PostMan->Send();
$res['error_info'] = $PostMan->ErrorInfo;
$PostMan->ClearAddresses();
if($res['email'])
{
sed_stat_inc('totalmailsent');
return(TRUE);
}
else
{
return(FALSE);
}
}
Must have had the postman plugin installed back then.. Відредаговано: Twiebie (02.10.2010 00:17, 15 років тому) |

It's not really related to Cotonti, but I did write something on the topic recently: Sending email with python smtplib (it allows for a custom SMTP server)
There's probably a related PHP function somewhere. |
