Full Version: SMTP Configuration Error
You're currently viewing a stripped down version of our content. View the full version with proper formatting.
Can't use PHP Mail() because my hosting provider will only allow PHP Mail() to be sent to the localhost. They did install PEAR for me, but it doesn't look like MyBB has that as an option.

I've tried numerous SMTP configurations, I started with a proven configuration that works with Outlook, but I continue to get the following:

Unable to connect to the mail server with the given details.<br /><br />10060: A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond.

Does anyone have a suggestion?
Does anyone know of a way to "Debug" the SMTP mail process?

I'm a beginner with PHP so I've been struggling to follow the code.

Thanks in advance!
