Who the fuck has it set to email them about replies to posts

edited April 2005 in News & Announcements
Holy shit, everyone go to their profile and disable that. We keep getting SMTP errors because Verizon's SMTP is starting to not like the fact that I'm sending like 100 emails a day from phpBB.

  • *shrug* Don't blame me, I've never had it on.
  • No-one did. :)
  • Fish, why don't u use a different SMTP server?
  • Like your own?
  • Cause several ISPs were blocking me.... I just need to figure out why this keeps telling me its an invalid user, since I know its not... I'll mess with it later, I'm pretty tired right now.

    This is coming from Mr. DNS?
  • "Mr. DNS" LOL

    Can't you just disable the email function or something

    Alot of ISPs, especially more recently, do NOT take to homegrown SMTP svrs. I used mine for a while untill every 2nd Email I sent got bounced because I was on MAPS DUL (Thanx alot Crapcast!).

    PS. This belongs in N&A
  • I run a mail server quite happily, and I wouldn't mind if you guys used that, my ISP doesn't care.
  • You're not on Comcrust, so that's not too surprising.

  • I'm going to call Verizon about it, technically it should just appear that I send alot of email, BUT I'm beginning to wonder if their server noticed its the same thing over and over and started blocking it as spam, therefore causes an error.

    Why don't you just manually disable it. Oh, BTW the DNS is working perfectly.
  • really, cuz the site is down
  • Then why's it still in your profile?

    -Q
  • Because I forgot to update it.
  • Ahh, that's better. Now ICBM just has to change his sig and that'll be over with.

    It is in the configuration settings for phpBB.
  • you tell it to not use a SMTP server.....

    but i meant i read somthign about just taking out the bit of code that deals with it.... i can't remember it now.... O_O
  • The user and all related content has been deleted.
  • Right now its fixed... I had forgot the @verizon.net in the login LOL.

    Your opinion on the site content has nothing to do with the DNS.

    That goes for you to "JulesOS".

  • Wha? I dunno how to turn the thing off, it won't go off! I keep getting the emails regardless!

    Will an admin PLEASE turn it off!
  • Go to your profile and scroll down to the preferences section, it's after "notify of private message" and before "attatch signature"
  • It didnt work for some reason, either that, or Zenithus' mail server is sllllooooow.

    Note: I'd highly prefer it if people didn't edit my posts!
  • OK it SHOULD be disabled. I hope that stops the WinWorld addr getting SPAMmed with bounced notifications.
