Topic: phpgroupware email setup

[Derek]

Hello,

I've been playing around with phpgroupware. Everything is working great, except for when I try to send an email I get this error message:

Array
(
    [code] => 500
    [msg] => Syntax Error, command unrecognized

    [desc] =>
    [server_chat] =>
c->s: fsockopen(ckuamain.ckua.org,25,0,,5) ; returned: Resource id #20
s->c: 220 ckuamain.ckua.org SMTP daemon ready.
c->s: EHLO ckuamain.ckua.org
s->c: 500 Syntax Error, command unrecognized

)


 I've found a couple of other posts on this, but no solutions. I can't seem to figure out what the correct email settings are. (Reading/receiving email works just fine). I've tried entering the SMTP hostname using localhost, IP address, hostname, and FQDN - all with the same result.

Any suggestions?

Thanks.

Derek

Change EHLO to HELO in /opt/phpgroupware/email/inc/class.mail_send.inc.php. If I recall, it's only in one place.

It's caused by the SMTP server not supporting newer options, I've been told.

That did it.

Much obliged!!

I wonder if you could help me too Des,

   I've installed phpgroupware, by the manual and everything works fine, but when I try to open the mail, I get:

detected that there has already been an attempting to recover that failed
exiting...

   Any ideia???

   Cheers

Me too! I'm getting the same error "detected that there has already been an attempting to recover that failed exiting...". Any ideas? Anybody?

did you re-check your e-mail setting, globally as well as personal settings?

[Stan Coleman]

Checked and double checked. I finally removed email as an application and re-added. It's now working fine.
