Topic: Admin mail change

Hello,
I would like to change the admin's mail used to send notifications and passwords to new members. It's not the same thing as changing it in the admin's profile apparently.
Thanks in advance. smile

Re: Admin mail change

Why couldn't it be any complicated?!
I should have checked more carefully, that demonstrates my limited knowledge ^^ Oops!

Thanks a lot Smartys, you're always here to help smile

Re: Admin mail change

Well well... I have changed it there as you suggested, but I still have it in the notifications, and everywhere!

Re: Admin mail change

    // Default sender/return address
    if (!$from)
        $from = '"'.str_replace('"', '', $pun_config['o_board_title'].' '.$lang_common['Mailer']).'" <'.$pun_config['o_webmaster_email'].'>';

That's from include/email.php: did you change the webmaster email? smile

Re: Admin mail change

I just changed the part of: '.$pun_config['o_webmaster_email'].'>'; to
'.$pun_config['the-new-e-mail'].'>';

So here is the thing:
Before:
- Outside the mail: xx Forums Mailer
- Inside the mail: xx Forums Mailer" <old mail>
Now:
- Outside the mail: xx Forums Mailer@ yahoo.com (??! The new mail isn't even in yahoo!)
- Inside the mail: xx Forums Mailer @

Should I have changed the webmaster mail elsewhere?

EDIT:
I changed here as well, and no change:
fwrite($socket, 'MAIL FROM: <'.$pun_config['newmail'].'>'."\r\n");
    server_parse($socket, '250');

Re: Admin mail change

No, I meant change it in Admin Options, not change the code: the code was simply to illustrate what field needed to be updated. smile

Re: Admin mail change

Oh, I thought that I needed to change the code too.
As for the options, I have changed it, but it still remains in the notifications and in the registration process.

Re: Admin mail change

You've changed the webmaster and admin emails?
If so, try removing the cache_config.php file in the cache directory

Re: Admin mail change

Is there a webmaster field other than the "Mailing list" field in the Administration Options?
