i am in my joomla admin area and i am trying to send out a mass email but i get this error: PHPMAILER_EXECUTE/usr/sbin/sendmail i tried googling the problem to fix it and seems like everybody is messing with the settings but i cant seem to get it to work.. here is what my settings look like right now: mailer: send mail Mail from: i put my email i created in the C panel.. webmail account From name: sitename from name: i put my sites name Sendmail Path: /usr/sbin/sendmail SMTP Authencation: no SMTP Security: none SMTP Port: 25 SMTP Username: [dont know what to put here] SMTP password: [dont know what to put here] SMTP host: localhost
ok my friend figured it out. it was set so if someones email is invalid it messes the whole thing up. now we put a component where it doesnt matter if its invalid they still send through.
Mass mailing is a bad idea anyway. You can get marked as spam too easily. Better to use a program specifically for mailing large amounts of people. One where you can cull bad addresses and bounces.
