Failed to send email (admin if sent)

[corey_hitt@multiverse.software]

My suggestion would be to store a database value in the email table of sendmail or smtp, and provide a drop-down select menu. The default could be sendmail, and if you select SMTP, then the other fields appear from a hidden

Code:

<div>

.

Then you could simply query the db for the value, and send that with the function values so line 121:

Code:

function email($to,$subject,$body,$attachment=false){

could change to:

Code:

function email($to,$subject,$body,$attachment=false,$mta){

then you could do this around line 138:

<pre>

Code:

if ($mta == "smtp") {
  $mail->isSMTP();
}

</pre>


This way it's user friendly for those admins that know no code.

I can see why you wouldn't have that may complaints though because a lot of hosting providers keep sendmail() on their hosting servers (like GoDaddy) where you wouldn't need SMTP. I uninstall sendmail from my hosting servers and force admins to use SMTP through their email via postfix so I can see when I might have a runaway spam site, and I can easily disable the violating email account to stop the email.

Sorry, I just saw where you asked @mudmin specifically on this. But hope the input helps!
