Sendmail - no emails from checkout

[JACUK]

Hi,

Throwing myself on the forum's mercy again after some great help on other issues.

Finally have processed a test order right through including test card transaction with Worldpay.

Seller email account and buyer email account both receive confirmation emails from Worldpay but OSCommerce does not generate any confirmation to seller or buyer.

When setting customer account up the customer email account received confirmation of the account creation and i have a form running on a non OSCommerce page on the site that also works using sendmail.

The email options are set to Transport=sendmail and Linefeeds to LF

Any suggestions or ideas would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Julian

one thing you can try is.

https://www.mail-tester.com

it will have a look at your email, to see if anything can be done to improve it, could be something in the email triggering a blacklist.

also make sure you got at least one email address added to Send Extra Order Emails To

Then the problem could be with OSCommerce only not with email.

So check the settings of OSCommerce.

In configuration>my Store settings as follows:-

E-Mail Address - [email protected]

Send Extra Order E-Mails To - [email protected]

In Configuration>E-Mail Options settings as follows:-

E-Mail Transport Method - sendmail

E-Mail Linefeeds - LF

Unless I have mis-understood there is nothing else to configure?

Also just setup another customer account and the Welcome Email was received inn the customer email inbox.

Haven't tried mail-tester yet - will be trying later - but not sure at this stage that emails are actually being generated.

Have I missed a configuration setting?

Thanks,

Julian

Hi Julian, ask your provider whether mails can be sent free or only with smtp username and password.
that was also the problem for me

Hi,

Have been talking to hosting provider; they have checked the mail logs and can see the account setup email on the log for the sending mailbox but when an order is processed nothing is appearing. That tends to say to me that the emails are not being generated in the first place.

When in the checkout process is the email actually generated. As i mentioned before the Worldpay confirmation is being generated but the sysyem leaves me on the Worldpay confirmation page and doesnt go back to the shop, could this be the issue that the shop is not getting confirmation nfrom Worldpay and therefore is not generating the confirmation?

Any thoughts would be appreciated.

regards,

Julian

most payment modules the email is generated from checkout_process.php, but there are a few which have the code within the payment module instead.

have a look at https://library.oscommerce.com/Package&en&worldpay&oscom23&hosted

Cracked it!

A spurious space in one of the Worldpay fields was stopping the transaction being flagged back to the website as authorised!

At least i know exactly where the email is generated in the order process!

Thanks for all your suggestions - much appreciated.
