Hi dgusa.

1. Upgrade to 2.4.1 because you are using an "alpha" release and there is no reason to. 241 is officially stable so upgrade.

2. If you do not have a folder called htsrv then you do not have the full package installed properly. htsrv folder has been part of b2evolution ever since forever, so something went wrong in your installation process.

Given #2 upgrading is even easier because you need to get the zip package again and upload files again eh?

After upgrading to 241 see if you can get emails sent.

BTW just because the host offers phpbb doesn't mean that program or any other will be able to send emails. It *implies* the stuff they offer will work, but doesn't really promise it right?

Well, I've upgraded, and still have the exact same results with out of the box 2.4.1 (no emails going out, but success message) as well as with the swift-smtp "fix" (white screen after submit).

I guess I did have an htsrv, it was just named tbcom for some reason. :)

Any ideas? I need to find some way to get this sending emails.

Well I've now rolled all that swift-smtp stuff back out.

I talked to my host and they told me the following:

you should insert the following string before php mail() function in your form:
ini_set('sendmail_from', 'user@domain.com');

Unfortunately, I have no clue where i should put this. I tried _advanced and that doesn't do anything, so if anyone can give me some insight I would greatly appreciate it!

I'm guessing you'll want to add that to htsrv/message_send.php around line 286?

// Send mail
$success_mail = send_mail( $recipient_address, $subject, $message, "$sender_name <$sender_address>" );
