Is the mailer not working?

Apologies if I'm being annoying but I wanted to make it clear that this seems to be affecting new user registration as well. I'm handy with these sorts of things, so if I can help I would be glad to.

Absolutely it is affecting all mailer activities.  Why did Gmail suddenly stop working for me?  Nothing changed in our setup.

Here is the fix. Edit Sources/Subs-Post.php as follows:

Replace

Code: [Select]

// EHLO could be understood to mean encrypted hello...
if (server_parse('EHLO ' . $modSettings['smtp_host'], $socket, null) == '250')

With

Code: [Select]

// EHLO could be understood to mean encrypted hello...
// if (server_parse('EHLO ' . $modSettings['smtp_host'], $socket, null) == '250')
if (server_parse('EHLO ' . 'localhost', $socket, null) == '250')

Thanks krusty.  I'll try it tonight.

You all owe krusty a beer.  Mail is now working and the backlogged queue is now flushing.  Thanks krusty.  Even I owe you copious amounts of beer.

I have received several old notices in the last few minutes. I guess it is working.

Yup.  Once I figured out the mailer wasn't working, I put the system in a mode to queue up the rejected emails for resending.  However, there is a period of time after mail stop working, but before I queue up rejected emails in which emails were "lost".

Note that the system is dribbling out the queue at a rate of 50 per minute.  There is something like 1500 queued up emails so it will take several minutes to flush.

Still not working for me.

I started getting a ton of emails last night. I suspected you guys got it fix. haha awesome. Now i can get a bunch of nonsense emails and PM to help me through the day. 

I got one last night and none today. Nothing on this thread or the bouy thread.

I received a ton of late email notifications last night, and am still receiving them this evening.

The backlog exceeded my gmail daily allowance.  It'll take a day or 2 to work through them.

I got PM notifications from this evening. I'm hoping that means the back log is just about gone.
