Full Version: Activation Email not being sent?

I've been inviting members from other places to my forum, but I keep getting reports that the activation email isnt being sent. Is there anyway to fix this?
Is it just the activation email or do none of the emails go through? Are you using a free host? Most free hosts either limit or disable the email service so that might be something to check.

You should try with this test email script and see if you get the email, if you don't then you need to contact your host about it.
