I can't get MyBB to send registration verification email (or any emails from MyBB). System Mail Log says: "Unable to connect to the mail server with the given details.<br /><br />115: Operation now in progress"

Same SMTP settings can send email from Outlook Express or MacOS Mail. Any help?

Thanks!

Can you try another SMTP server or PHP mail?

Yeah, sorry I forgot to reply here. I was able to get PHP Mail to work, but not SMTP. Don't know why SMTP wouldn't work. If I enter the SMTP settings in any stand-alone email application it works fine...just won't work through MyBB. It's probably something on my providers end. I did open a support ticket with my provider, but the troubleshooting process was exceeding my ability to follow it.

Anyway, it's all good now. Thanks!
My post was aimed at mr-sean who posted before me but glad you got your issue solved.
