Topic review (newest first)
Hello all,
I found a website that details the environment required to send mails with Free (les(dot)pages(dot)perso(dot)chez(dot)free(dot)fr/l-art-d-envoyer-des-mails-depuis-les-pp-de-free(dot)io).
Do not specify all the headers, only the main ones ( see the example code at the bottom of the page) because, if you overwrite the headers automatically inserted by the sending servers by yours, there are great chances that the email does not pass, while the function mail()was well coded, the content and the correct format, and that the PHP executor has delivered the email to the server perso1, in charge of sending from the PPs;
Mime text/plainor multipart ( text/html+ text/plain) format, never email in format text/htmlonly; the charset must be us-ascii, iso-8859-1, iso-8859-15, UTF-8.
I do not manage all the parameters. Do you know how are encoded the mails, and which headers are used ?
Thank you in advance
Dominique
Hi Windo,
I'm sorry for that, but I did not receive an email from you. I also checked my spam box, but nothing!
Could you please send an email directly to rb@luxsoft.eu.

Hi Roel,
I sent you my email address as requested, but I did not receive your test script, neither in my spam folder. Did you send it ?
Thank you.
Hi Windo,
Send me your email address (via the Contact page) and then I will send you a small test script to test the PHP mail function.
If this works, the calendar mail should work as well.

I compared the settings of both calendars, they are identical, the url of the calendar is h t t p, I tried to use the 2nd mail address for the one that do not work but it still do not work.
I dont understand.
In addition, for both calendar, when I open an existing event and check the checkbox "immediate notification", no mail is sent when saving the event, by PHP mail service. Is it normal ?
Thx
Hi Windo,
Please also check if the Calendar URL on the Settings page in the General section is correct. In particular if the https (secure) part is correct.

Hi @Schwartz,
Thank you for your reply.
The calendar is hosted by free and is part of the domain, as well as the semder-mail address.
I have 2 caldendars hosted by Free.
The "Test mail" button works correctly for the 1st one, but i did not test the mail service when posting an event.
For the 2nd calendar, the "Test mail" btn reports "Sending test mail failed - recipient(s): xxxx"
All the parameters are the same, hosted both by Free, ... I dont understand.
I'll check them by comparison.
...
I am not familiar with Free France - BUT
Most providers now requires that the sender-mail is part of the domain.
Example: domain is mydomain.com
The sender then must be like postmaster@mydomain.com or noreply@mydomain.com
The sender-mail address (the calendar) must belong to the same domain as the calendar.
Hope it makes sense and is useful.
Concentrate on the PHP mail. It should function.
What is the outcome when you try the "Test mail" button in the settings?
Hello,
I'd like to use the email service, but it do not seems to work with the provider Free in France.
I tested both mail PHP and mail SMTP with params :
- SMTP server : smtp(dot)free(dot)fr
- port : 587
- SSL : enabled
- auth SMTP : complete mail address + pwd
Does anybody already used it ?
Thank you.
