Email Plugins

If you’re serving your webpage from your computer, you may. (I don’t know honestly, as I’ve never run a webserver on my own computer.)

If your web page is hosted somewhere (you have to upload via FTP), more likely than not your host has what you’ll need to run them. Most plugins will tell you what’s required, and if you don’t know if your host provides that, you should be able to check with them to find out.

HTH.

Thanks !! Do you know a cool mailserver I can use ?

I’m 90% sure that you already have one installed, if you’re on a host.

Are you windows or linux or mac ?

No no… It’s just another computer in my LAN… This site is in our Network and it’s just for me and my collegues. I installed easyphp, but no mailserver ….

Are you windows or linux or mac ?

Windows

I’ve used this one with good results, back in my website on my laptop days.

Thanks !!!

Do you know how to configure it ? What should I put in email adresses ? It has to be an exixting adress ?

Okay, I really need help. I can’t even find how to post a new post so I write mine here.

I have installed PHP, mySQL & WordPress and both my wife and I have the blogs working…okay so far.

Problem: When someone registers their password is never emailed to them. I know I answerd wrong SOMEWHERE (where was that) when it asked for my SMTP server, I just said local. I know that is not correct but don’t know where to change it or what it should be. My email is hosted Exchange by a third party so I connect kind of weird, its not like I just fill in POP3 SMTP server. I will have to play with that but where do I change the settings?

Thanks and love the Blog

I’m running a hosted exchange account via 1and1. I believe they allow smtp access.

farocam, I haven’t messed with that since 5 years ago, sorry.
