Sounds like your host may be set up to have smtp relaying set up for mail that would go outside your domain. You should check their documentation or contact their tech support and ask what domain/ip address and port you should use to send mail out of their domain and update your php.ini mail settings to reflect that. Hopefully that should help!

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! dblogger!!!

I have been looking for a day and a half now about how to do this and you just gave me a quick, simple and easy way!! My server is IIS shared hosting so it makes it even more difficult because I don’t have the shell access I need to set permissions on things.

Thank you again!! Yay!

I am having the same problems with using custom fields in WPv2.0.

Trying to use Bunny’s Techorati tags plugin… debugging it I get nothing returned from this call:

$tags = get_post_custom_values($meta_field);

I’ve verified that the $meta_field is ‘tags’ and that the post I’m trying to access them on actually does have values for the ‘tags’ custom field, and also that the call to the plugin is happening in “the loop”.

Can anyone help me figure out what’s going on? I’d greatly appreciate it! Thanks.

Thanks for that link. I haven’t been able to get the plugin to send me the emails yet but I think it’s a matter of configuration.

Is there something I can do in WordPress to get it to attempt to send me emails OTHER than having fake comments? I am running out of IP addresses that I can have the comments sent from and I need some way to test this new mailer!

My ISP is IIS based so if you’re using Apache it may be another issue, but I had the same problem and here’s how I fixed it.

You need to set up things with your ISP so that index.php is one of the “default” pages for the directory you installed WordPress in. Most hosting services use default.html, default.asp, or default.aspx as the “default” pages so just adding index.php gets rid of that access problem!

Good luck! Hope that helps!
