I am trying to get the Newsletter feature to work in my community starter kit website, without any success. When a test newsletter is sent, for example to a hotmail account, I get ?news@localhost?. I know now that some ISPs won?t recognize an invalid sender address. So, I put it the correct SMTP address for the site. Still didn?t work. I am told that I need to create an email address and password for my web application to authenticate. Did it. Than I need to configure my web application with that data in order to be able to connect and send messages. And that the wall I hit. How do you do this? Is there something in the Community Starter Kit, database or webpage, I need to update? Do I have to write something custom? Can anyone help.
The SMTP server should have nothing to do w/ the sender address. Can you post your settings? Bruce DiscountASP.NET www.DiscountASP.NET
My current setting in the ISPAdmin section are as follows: Primary Domain: olvnj.com Community Domain: * Community Subdomain: * SMTP Server: localhost
are you using version 1.1? the 1.1 CSK is full of bugs; i am not sure the one you are seeing is the one of the known bug. Since the CSK 1.1 is so old, I don't even have a copy installed. I suggest you try post to the ASP.NET forum and see if anyone knows how to fix this problem. Bruce DiscountASP.NET www.DiscountASP.NET
