After server migration, I end up into email configuration error. I am unable to receive any email from the website. My service provider suggest these:
It seems that your scripts are using smtp without authentication due to which these emails are not going through from the server. Email scripts need to use authentication while sending as per the newer servers.I would suggest you to change the scripts from your end to mail with authentication and smtp with authentication and try sending the emails which should then work fine.
Can anyone please help me to resolve this on ELGG 1.8 email configuration error.

You must log in to post replies.Hi jasoos:
I have a problem like that in the past, and I solved it by installing a local Postfix copy, delivering the elgg mail to Postfix, and letting the Postfix deal with the authentication in the "external" email server, as described in [1].
BTW, the server was running Linux.
Best regards,

Server personal reply this:
As we mentioned earlier the server supports all the requirements. You need to make sure that mails are being sent with smtp authentication from your scripts.
In all our shared servers cpanel supports exim as mail server and we are not using postfix.
