MyBB was unable to send the email using the PHP mail() function.

This means the host has not setup php mail sending, you will have to change hosts or use a smtp server such as google's smtp

This will send it through your gmail account. Go to the smtp settings under mail settings in your admin cp

^ I tried that but it's not working still.

I need help with this smtp

How do i setup php mail sending on my own server ?

Im sorry you tried what, setting up the smtp, okay so did you to configuration and go mail settings, switch it to smtp, and then add the information you get from the link?

Did you do all that and then is it sending again?

It's not sending.

I signed up to google apps.

Do i use tls or ssl

apt-get install postfix

For those wondering.

Oh you own your own vps or dedi server. okay, um, http://kb.siteground.com/article/How_to_...erver.html try that

http://mail.google.com/support/bin/answe...swer=13287 can also answer your questions

take a look at http://community.mybb.com/thread-28735.html

if you dont want to go with smtp, go with opening up your php.ini and checking to see if everything is in order

you could have just used a normal gmail account

use tls

Plus look at this for google apps if you want to
