Email Setup

[rahulakacyrus61]

Hi,

I am trying to send mail through custom squirrelmail in my application frontend.

Here's what I did till now:
1- Installed Squirrelmail in a directory.
2- configured squirrelmail (it shows messages now)

I cannot figure out the smtp settings of the same and it usually bumps out error.

Can anyone help me with this?

I know that the SMTP settings are provided in the admin panel...
Alppying that, i still get an error--- Notice: fputs() [function.fputs]: send of 12 bytes failed with errno=10054 An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host. in C:\wamp\www\Joomla_1.5.22\squirrelmail\class\deliv er\Deliver_SMTP.class.php on line 156

Any help on this guys??

That unique php error is a headache!!

If I could get a copy of the config file of the squirrelmail(which runs the cpanel email), I will be able to solve this.
My current installation runs slow too.(Same is with Joomla)

Can I suggest to include SquirrelMail, or any awesome Email Client to be included in Softaculous/ Fantastico. It would be great help to run email in the front end of the application, since 2 email accounts don't necessarily need cpanel admin login.

Thanks for your help in Advance.

To be more specific on this problem :

I need these parameters--

$use_smtp_tls = ?;
$smtp_auth_mech = ?;
$smtp_sitewide_user = ?;
$smtp_sitewide_pass = ?;

I have tried various combinations here..please help me configure this!!

The main reason you are not getting an answer is most people here are not familiar with smtp and squirrelmail.

I do not think you can use tls, otherwise the 3 other settings you listed are specific to squirrelmail and I cannot offer any help there.

Additionally you may use https://cyrus.x10.mx:2096 for mail logins, which do not require a cpanel login to access.

Thanks for your reply!

I solved this problem..How if you ask, then the solution I dont really understand.

I was accessing the email system(for testing purposes) on the local system and had the installation of squirrelmail & roundcube here. Then it was not working.

Now, when I uploaded the same content online, it magically worked
