Re: email validation on registration: does anything additional need to be installed?
Hi Rick, always first to respond. Thanks again for your help.
I'm not using 'Validate user's email'. I read the doc in your link again and the way i understand the description that is validating that the email address entered is valid by it's syntax. I am putting in valid email addresses, but your comment suggests that this option does more than just looks at the @ and . s of the input text. Is there more to it?
FWIW, I just downloaded the 3.0 live cd to get the cleanest (or at least most easily reproducable) environment and I get the same error message "the registration mail can't be sent". The 3.0 live cd already comes with a sender email ( however i did try to create a 'donotreply@mydomain.com' email also). and i checked the 'validate by email' and 'require validation by admin' options only. I would suspect that the livecd would have the correct configuration for 'most' tiki settings to work out of the box, for demonstration purposes, so I wonder what needs to be done to have this feature work
