EMAIL MIGHT BE FIXED!!!

Post by Dalexs »

Heads ups... EMAIL IS NOT WORKING!!!

This has been off and on for a while, and mostly noticed with NEW USER REGISTRATION
Emails thru the board are NOT getting sent.

I checked logs, and saw some errors, so if you recently sent emails, they didn't go anywhere.

I do not believe this is a forum issue, but a host issue.
Its on the top of my list to work on.

If you just registered and have NOT gotten the authentication email, please contact us directly at admin@indygear.com
Note: The "Contact Us" at the top of the page works for some reason, so ping us if needed.

Sorry for the inconvenience

Hence the title of this thread... :rolling:

The host has a 3rd party spam monitor (cloudflare) that apparently has deemed most mails coming "from the board" as spam, and blocks them.
"Contact Us" form works, test settings in admin panel works, but any notifications or direct emails to other users get blocked.
I need to contact them directly and see what we can do.

I MAY have gotten this fixed...

I know the following based on a few tests:
- Registration emails are going out and being excepted by gmail. (But still check your spam folder)
- PM notifications seem to be working (Yahoo seems to be a bit hit or miss)
- Emails via the board seem to be getting accepted by both yahoo and gmail

Please let me know if this is still an issue. (The "Contact us" link above has always worked)

Thanks
