 Hi !
when I try to order pictures from my site, after confirmation I can see the message "Thank you for your order [...] We already send a notification mail to myAdress " but I don't receive anything. Do you know why ?

Thank you,

Emilie

Your server can send mails?

Emilie
yes

sbluege
Can you provide a link to your site please? I'd like to place a test order.

Emilie
I can't, I installed my site in localhost :(

sbluege
How do you confirm that your server can send mails?

Emilie
I specified it in server settings. What is better to use: PHP Mail, SMTP or Sendmail ?

sbluege
Event Gallery uses Joomla core features to send mail so it does not care about those settings. Can you send a mail using the a Joomla contact form?

I recommend this tool for local tests: http://www.toolheap.com/test-mail-server-tool/

Emilie
thanks, I tried this Test Mail Server Tool, I send a message with the contact form and I received it in my folder with Test Mail Server Tool but I still don't receive anything by e-mail :(

sbluege
Of cause not. You are working in a local environment. If you use the local mail tool it'll never send a real email out but you can check them in the incoming folder of this tool.

Emilie
So if it works (when I receive messages in the folder) it means that when it will be on a non-local server it will work ?

sbluege
It means it works locally. If you do not configure your production environment correctly it'll not be able so send out a single mail.

Emilie
Ok thanks,
I will see when my site won't be local anymore...

Thank you !
