Hi Max,
I got into an issue sending an e-mail to my gmail.com-account from CF8. It is very similar to the effect I had with Chronomail (112090/some-issues-with-chronomails)
The response is
"MAIL EXCEPTION: SMTP Error: The following recipients failed: xxxx@gmail.com: authentication required". The mail does howeverarrive with delay and is obviously resent.
I have checked the Joomla mail setting over and over and made a php-script to send email using Joomla send mail setting (smtp server) that works well.The problem seems in the email-action?
Hi anijsj
Please disable the ChronoMails system plugin under the plugins manager then test the ChronoForms again, does the email get sent fine ?
if it does not then what is the code you have tested and worked ?
Hi Max,Thank you very much for the suggestion to switch off the ChronoMails plugin. Indeed the problem seems to be solved!Specific complication at debugging was that the email is sent from a webhook in response to a payment transaction.
The test php-code I used was to call the Joomla Mailer directly in order to confirm the parameter settings are correct; at first outside ChronoForms, in next instance as a work around as PHP-action within ChronoForms, bypassing the email-action.
regards,John
Great, I think this solved the problem because ChronoMails traps and modifies all emails before they are sent, so somehow it delays the email in your case, I'm not sure why, but I will test this here and let you know the results.
